lyrics

This throne of ours we share has crumbled
Once a titan built to scape the coward skies
A diet crack cast through the heavens and opened up the stillest night.
And cast us away.

This innocence we’ve shared is done for.
We lost a friend her soul is thrown towards the skies and so with
hands to eyes, heads down to humble
acknowledge not our inner cries
we’re cast away

(Chorus)
Can we avoid tomorrow
If we turn our back on today
The tide is getting higher
Do we set the sails or remain
A cast away.

This throne of ours we share has crumbled
And honest company is doing more than fine
The first to break, care take, and stumble
Defibrillates the pain inside
and casts us away

(Chorus)

War is war and love is love
and damage done is damage done
We shook a fist and shipped a toast towards the skies
While our innocence was laid to rest

Are we old enough to forget what we know
To forget that the pain is an etch in the stone
could you steady your hand as to straighten the stitch so the scars will fade quick

When we were young and in love with the thought
That the world it was ours
That it spun around us
Could you steady your hand as to straighten the stitch so the scars will fade quick

(on my own, i’ll do it again, i’ll do it until we’re gone)

Set the sails and come with me
i’d rather die out there upon the sea
Set the sails up to the sky
I’d rather sink than wait until we die
The only way is through the storm
So lets survive and show her who we are
Lets survive and show her who we are

I am overwhelmed so I will send my final toast
Its maybe not the best we take our chances on our own
‘Cause i’m not the one not the one who can see

Brothers I am battered I am beaten I am broke
And at times it feels I’m out here on my own
‘Cause i’m not the one not the one who can see

I know that feels that we’re abandoned from this earth
Just waiting on the boat to take us back into our lives
“Cause i’m not the one not the one who can piece you whole tonight.
