"Rise On Water" lyrics

"Rise On Water"

With a pocket full of reasons
And the empty hands that choose to hold
The comfort of a life once filled with hope
But now the hope is fading and you're losing faith in purity
Your torn between what's right and what you need

Nobody ever told you
How dark the sky could turn from blue
Nobody ever sold you, oh
More than one mistake
Nobody ever told you
How deep the water gets when you jump in

Now you're reaching out for something
That amounts to nothing once again
A silent life degraded even more
The you that you now love is a lie...

Nobody ever warned you
No one could even reach you there
Nobody ever taught you
Don't ever lose control
Nobody ever told you
So out of your mind...

Rise on water
I need to see you...
Rise on water
And leave...
Go!

Nobody ever told you
How dark the sky could turn from blue
Nobody ever sold you, oh
More than one mistake
Nobody ever told you
How deep the water gets when you jump in

Rise on water
I need to see you...
Rise on water, oh
Rise on water...

Oh...
