Sinking back deep as the stars fade into the black Cold and fear now rape me I bury my face in my hands With the weight in my chest I'm an anchor filled with regret Slowly I open my eyes MY lungs expand and explode and the ocean collects in my throat The days of pain in waiting I let out a scream and my soul rushes out of my lungs I know that I'm only afraid Because all that I've felt never matched with the things I have made When they see that I need to be saved It will be too late The stars that shine up above Won't light our way to be loved The days of pain in waiting
