lyrics

There was a darkness, that soothed me,
and raised me up to dream
in an abyss, those nightmares,
they're not what they seem
they whispered of a world they'd known
where every child was their own
all the colours of an oil spill when moonlight hits the wave,
I'll save you all.

You've seen all the things that I've seen,
you've been all the places I've been, my friend
you know all the things that I know,
well maybe not all but most so
who cares who is better or worse than anyone?
I've made mistakes along the way,
but who said things should stay the same,
I don't agree
the universe is filled with so "moray" new exciting things to sea,
for you and me

you don't need saving, you can save yourself
you're all so special from the inside out,
Just take a second, look how far we've come
I bet if the nightmares could see me now they'd say "well done."

well done, well done, well done daughter, daughter well done.

There was a darkness, that knew me,
and raised me wild and strong
so hated, and so feared was she,
though fearful most of all
she whispered of a hunger deep
and as old as the bones beneath her meat
all strange serenades and never sleeps yet never wakes,
I'll break your fall

you've done everything that you could,
you feel like there's something else you're supposed to do
who crossed that road, who burned that bridge,
who fought that current and swam with the fish, was it you?
I've lost a friend, I've gained a friend,
what's a friend mean but a means to an end?
I tried my best with
everyone I've ever loved ill outlive unless I can find
where life inside me rests, it is my test

You don't need saving, anymore, anymore
but I'm still waving from a not-so-distant shore
just take a second, look at what you'll start
I'm sorry that I couldn't save you, from darkness inside your heart

your heart, your heart, your hardened heart, friend...
