I hesitated too long to see what's behind the walls that
Hide my own delusion that we would crumble alone- but we won't
What did it mean to be run to the ground? You felt like a raindrop splashed in the oceans that we found
Well I'd stay awake till we're far enough from ground that there's no one there to see me drowning
Then I'll stand reborn over the ashes that we found and together we'll rebuild this from the ground
