Lyrics

Trapped underneath the weight of her heart
That shipwreck is too big to tow far
The water won’t bend, I watch her descend
She’s not being brave, it’s too much to take
What was it I could really expect?
How often did she sidestep regret?
I could not change her mind, I tried every day
I brought pictures of hope, but she turned them away
And things have got to turn around is what you want to tell her
If an ounce of justice lives, you and I will find it
If it takes us leaving home, we’ll run away together
and we will know that we’re not alone
something out there will guide us, some kind of love will find us
A better world reminds us that this exists
What meaning does she try to protect?
She’s so anxious to get rid of herself
Who can be blamed? What does it weigh?
She could not be convinced that it was worth more than this
chorus
Now and then I miss hearing her laugh
And I know we can’t change what has passed
I’ve got something to say that I want her to know
In the time left to spare I’ll paint her pictures of hope
chorus
