Tidal Wave - Owl City

I wish I could cross my arms

And cross your mind 'cause I believe

You’d unfold your paper heart

And wear it on your sleeve

All my life I wish I broke mirrors

Instead of promises

'Cause all I see is a shattered conscience

Staring right back at me

I wish I had covered all my tracks completely

'Cause I’m so afraid

Is that the light at the far end of the tunnel

Or just the train?

Lift your arms, only Heaven knows

Where the danger grows and it’s safe to say

There’s a bright light up ahead

And help is on the way, help is on the way

I forget the last time I felt brave

I just recall insecurity

'Cause it came down like a tidal wave

And sorrow swept over me Depression, please cut to the chase

And cut a long story short

Oh, please be done, how much longer

Can this drama afford to run?

Fate looks sharp, severs all my ties

And breaks whatever doesn’t bend

But sadly then, all my heavy hopes

Just pull me back down again

I forget the last time I felt brave

I just recall insecurity

'Cause it came down like a tidal wave

And sorrow swept over me Then I was given grace and love

I was blind but now I can see

'Cause I found a new hope from above

And courage swept over me It hurts just to wake up Whenever you’re wearing thin

Alone on the outside

So tired of looking in The end is uncertain

And I’ve never been so afraid

But I don’t need a telescope

To see that there’s hope

And that makes me feel brave
