Story Behind The Song

This is a song of hopelessness and fighting an endless battle, whether it be with another person, or with yourself.

Lyrics

Verse
I grew up so inside my head,
Raised a garden made my bed,
And now my home is all awash.
The water's stained with words unsaid,
And all the sharks come swimming in,
And we are left out in the cold.

Prechorus
But you are the only one to see the war.
And you and me are the only ones willing to fight at all.

Chorus
We are at war.
And nobody's coming up, nobody's coming up.
We're drowning fighting, to save our skins, to save our skins. And we are,
Running, running, we are running, running
To nowhere, we're going nowhere fast. We are
Drowning fighting. We are running, running to save our skins and to save our tainted souls.

Verse
Catch a boat and sail away.
Close my eyes till' I'm in space
And everything's to small to see.
Hold my heart close to my chest as gravity pulls apart the rest
And all thats left is dust and bones.

Prechorus
But you are the only one who sees that I'm strong.
And you are the only one to hold me when I'm not.

Chorus
We are at war.
And nobody's coming up nobody's coming up.
We're drowning fighting, to save our skins, to save our skins. And we are,
Running, running, we are running, running
To nowhere, we're going nowhere fast. We are
Drowning fighting. We are running, running to save our skins and to save our tainted souls.

To save our tainted souls.

Bridge
But there are children waiting for tomorrow's sun.
And they won't see it if we just fight the wars we've won.
We wander down these streets because we've seen them all before,
But the cracks in the road,
They won't lead us home.
The cracks in the road,
They won't lead us home.

Chorus
We are at war.
And nobody's coming up nobody's coming up.
We're drowning fighting, to save our skins, to save our skins. And we are,
Running, running, we are running, running
To nowhere, we're going nowhere fast. We are
Drowning fighting. We are running, running to save our skins and to save our tainted souls.

To save our tainted souls.
