Half Lived - Beyond the Shore

You won’t even notice

The last thing on your mind was the only prize

The ocean sings a sweet song

I can see it in your eyes

Only to the grave

Collapse against the windward ground

You’ll promise to be safe and sound

Watch as the limbs of the trees sway

Escape is only a breath away

I can taste the promise of better days

Oh I can taste the promise of better days

Sleepwalking on the tip of a tongue that can’t pronounce

Forgotten words are the beginning stages

Far worse than our hearts we keep locked up in cages

So taste the promise of better days

Collapse against the windward ground

You’ll promise to be safe and sound

Watch as the limbs of the trees sway

Escape is only a breath away

I can taste the promise of better days

Oh I can taste the promise of better days

I’ve watched the seasons change along with you all

The leaves from up above cut like razors as they fall

The ocean sings a sweet song

I can see it in your eyes

Only to the grave

Sleepwalking on the tip of a tongue that can’t pronounce

Forgotten words are the beginning stages

Far worse than our hearts we keep locked up in cages

So taste the promise of better days

I’ll hold weightless words above your head

You won’t even notice

The last thing on your mind was the only prize
