"Opal" lyrics

I'm sorry for your loss, please come back to us
All that we've been has all come and gone so easily
I don't wanna be in this fight
When all the plans that we've birthed all fold their wings and die

Are you digging deep to find
Something you buried long ago where sleeping giants should lie?

You've been holding up an idea that's fatal
These beautiful distractions move
I see your hand, you're here by choice
You're drowning in the silence of these broken rules

Release the overflow, take it off the edge
Under the will of these chemicals so easily
Sick of the pain in your stomach, you try to cover your mouth
But the words keep spilling out, and your hand's not quick enough

How far will you go to finish this desperate attempt to revive
Something you buried long ago where sleeping giants should lie?

Don't bow down and give in, it's just the beginning
These poisonous snakes hide in the reeds patiently
We're not guilty, they just bought the jury
This conviction is so meaningless
Anonymously, in all honesty I wouldn't show them you care
I'd be so still and quiet like death was around
Quiet like death was around

You've been holding up an idea that's fatal
This beautiful distraction moves
Not seen or heard, you're here by choice
You're drowning in the silence below
No chance to survive

How far will you go to finish this desperate attempt to revive
Something you buried long ago where sleeping giants should lie?
Should lie
