"Shipwreck City" lyrics

I've been searching for some common ground to rest my weary head
And gather my strength to confront the demons of my past
That still haunt my every step
Now the ashes of the friends I've burned are all that I have left

And I still find myself in question with the path I chose to take
Is this the end of the road?
Cause there's still stories to be told

Is this the end of the road?
Cause there's still stories to be told
Whoa, whoa
I've still so much to give and so much left to show
The truth be told I needed time to grow, so watch me grow

I won't feel any shame, if I'm forced to change my fate
Because amongst your second guesses, there's a reason I'm alive
There's a reason I'm alive

I'm the captain of this ship, so I will go down with it
I'll send life boats far and wide, so one day I'll turn the tide
On everyone who wrote us off, cause they'll soon learn we'll never stop
And when there's nothing left to lose, they'll all set sail and follow suit

So this time we'll remove the anchors that bind us to the depths
And we will walk across the shallows
Our mistakes laying wake to the tide
Because we all needed time to grow and now I'll never let go
Because we all needed time to grow

Is this the end of the road?
Cause there's still stories to be told
Whoa, whoa
I've still so much to give and so much left to show
The truth be told I needed time to grow

Is this the end of the road?
Cause there's still stories to be told
Whoa, whoa
I've still so much to give and so much left to show
The truth be told, the truth be told
I needed time to grow
So watch me grow
Whoa, needed time to grow
