I am all alone; your words have never brought me peace
 They rain down upon my head and destroy everything
 With weary eyes I stare at the sea
 In the distance I hear you call out for me
I am so tired of running away
 Only to come back right where I had buried this with my hands
Still you tell me that I can be trusted with a burden that I never wanted
 No matter how I try to push you away I still hear you call out to me
I'm not the better man I'm called to be
 Why can't I escape? You pull me under the waves.
 I'm the one who made this sea
 It's taken everything from me
 Still you try to sing me to sleep.
But I buried this with my hands.
 No matter what I try I keep coming back.
There were days that I asked for this to change, 
 But there was a fear inside of me
 A fear that made me question who I am
 And why I'm capable of such horrible things
 And every single promise that you whispered in my ear, 
That fear just kept growing until it consumed me.
 But I let that fear go, and I can see who you are.
 Your words gave me nothing
 I've been running away for too long; I'm not running anymore
 I will stand my ground and scream out loud
My heart won't be yours.
So I buried this with my hands.
 And no matter what you try I won't be coming back.
I'm not the better man I'm called to be
 Why can't I escape? You pull me under the waves.
 I'm the one who made this sea
 It's taken everything from me
 And no matter what you try you won't sing me to sleep.
