lyrics

In the gentle arms of sleep
I buried you deep down
To rest again until we meet
Again in the cold ground

And there's nothing worth repeating
On the surface
It's not worth it

Cause when you hide your pain
You're digging your own grave
'Til you finally save your happiness
But that's not half of why you heard it.

There's a simple price to pay
For putting your name on a marquee
You think you got a taste of fame
That's a lot of malarkey

Cause we don't need a bit of praise
To know that we're okay
Know that you're okay

That fire's burning bright
I'll give you some peace of mind
Turn it into a kite
Fly it over all the land
For a moment you can understand
The string is in your hand
And all the while it's not
Although we all forgot
The thing that does not rot
Knows the plan.

Sometimes, too hard can seem your life
Take time to notice that you're alright

I used to think that life was meant for holding on
But now it seems we all let go of what we learn
Let's capture what feels like a warm sound
And let it be the one that you've always (heard)~

In the gentle arms of sleep
I buried you deep down.
