I took the long way to your house
But left the garden as it was
Found my feelings in my mouth
For what it's worth it's what it is, it's just because

Fight the words until they fit
In a wall around your heart
And time forgives but won't forget
Even when it steals the lights and leaves the dark

Calm as it was before
Wait for the storm
Wait for the storm
Wait for the storm
Wait for the storm

We were born to be alive
Not just someone else's bones
Fight the rest and do what's right
When it's wrong, leave the innocent alone
