Don’t be afraid Of the shadows that have crept across your face Though you feel it’s safe You’d rather not, rather not We left it behind Burned those bridges one at a time It hurt to see ’em fall We kept a lot, kept a lot
This is water, this is silence This is failure, this is trust This is working out the edges This is learning, this is love
We dream of growing old Running children in the hallways of our home We’ll wait another year And say goodnight, say goodnight
This is water, this is silence This is failure, this is trust This is working out the edges This is learning, this is love
And maybe after a lifetime We’ll awake to find that we’ve been hypnotized Just staring at the ceiling Waiting for our bodies to align
This is water, this is silence This is failure, this is trust This is working out the edges This is learning, this is love
