| We start so small there’s so much to us
|
| Who builds the wall we can never rise above?
|
| But I can tear them down for you
|
| Tear them down, but I’m not going to drown for you
|
| Someone rocked you on the deep
|
| Someone rocked you off to sleep
|
| Now I’m rocking you awake
|
| How much rocking can you take?
|
| Rock you ready now to walk the waves instead
|
| Wake up, wake up ocean head
|
| We work so hard, we live for working
|
| Where are the stars? |
| If we could only raise our heads
|
| But I can hand them down to you
|
| Hand them down but I’m not going to drown for you.
|
| Let the sea come crashing in in
|
| Let it take you up again
|
| Let it pound upon your shore
|
| Let it’s love become your law
|
| But it can’t wash out whatever came before.
|
| We are so wise but there’s no one listening
|
| Who starts the lies that keep us prisoners
|
| But I can burn them down for you
|
| Burn them down, but I’m not going to drown for you. |
