So they tell me that your faith is sinking from opinions
of all the people
That's ok because I know I've been there once or twice
from all the people
There's been a time when everything fell down just as the rain
and I just stood there
staring off
doing nothing
giving up
on looking for something

You have to break into your heart for wisdom
when you feel like you can't do it today
You have to let go all that you keep hearing
when it sounds like garbage anyway

I see the waves inside your eyes
turning over and over
until they cross the tide
I believe the calm has come to rise
because the water's getting colder
it slowly brings the ice

...to freeze the pain

Emotions overwhelm the heavy hearted and the troubled
just the same
we can care for each other
lifting up one another
the hardened apathy
from complacency
towards the deeper side of life
comes from the beating down
of dreamers all around
so dominating will suffice

You have to break into your heart for wisdom
when you feel like you can't do it today
You have to let go all that you keep hearing
when it sounds like garbage anyway
move back from the trouble turn away

I see the waves inside your eyes
turning over and over
until they cross the tide
I believe the calm has come to rise
because the water's getting colder
it slowly brings the ice

...to freeze the pain
