| Torn up and tattered, we fly at mid-staff
|
| (So hang us halfway up the highest mast)
|
| Wrecked and abandoned, we have lost all hope
|
| (Our faith was gone as waves swallowed our boat)
|
| All assurance is gone; |
| our inspiration has run dry
|
| Miles and miles of water, not a drop could satisfy
|
| I am sorry for making you think that
|
| (I would let you drown while our boat sinks)
|
| And I am telling you, no, I am promising
|
| That I won’t let you down (believe in me)
|
| We are so much more than our past
|
| (Too afraid to let go, too brave to loosen our grasp)
|
| The wind in our sails (has been stolen from us)
|
| And we’re not moving anytime soon
|
| (The ocean is haunting, unforgiving at night)
|
| So dark and deep, tries to make it seem
|
| That we will never see tomorrow
|
| (we will never see the light of the day)
|
| But my friend I must say
|
| «The sun also rises»
|
| And I’ll be there by your side
|
| To greet with open arms
|
| I am sorry for making you think that
|
| (I would let you drown while our boat sinks)
|
| And I am telling you, no, I am promising
|
| That I won’t let you down (believe in me)
|
| Defeated, but not yet broken
|
| Understated, yet not outspoken
|
| Defeated, but not yet broken
|
| Understated, yet not outspoken
|
| Defeated, but not yet broken
|
| Understated, yet not outspoken
|
| Defeated, but not yet broken
|
| Understated, yet not outspoken
|
| Defeated! |
| Oh, understated!
|
| (Worth more than these shattered bones we carry)
|
| I am sorry for making you think that
|
| (I would let you drown while our boat sinks)
|
| And I am telling you, no, I am promising
|
| That I won’t let you down |
