Verse 1
Counting pulses in my wrist
Frayed nerves and a closed fist
Watching shadows grow tall across the hallway paint
The pressure makes a sinner feel a little like a saint
Is it really me talking
Or just a hollow shell walking
Deep water fills the basement of my head
Keeping secrets better left unsaid
Pre-Chorus
It is heavy
It is silent
It is mine
I am looking for a spark to find
Chorus
Wait for the tide to turn back home
I am sick of being all alone
Burn the maps and lose the phone
Broken bones and bitter blame
Carving symbols next to my name
Trying to forget why I came
I came to fix it
I came to change
I came to stay
Drop
Stay
Stay
Verse 2
Stare at the plastic glass
Waiting for the mood to pass
One foot stuck in the mud while the other wants to run
Staring directly into the barrel of a rising sun
Breathless
Restless
Wrestling with the way I was built
Sifting through the layers of the silt
Pre-Chorus
It is heavy
It is silent
It is mine
I am looking for a spark to find
Chorus
Wait for the tide to turn back home
I am sick of being all alone
Burn the maps and lose the phone
Broken bones and bitter blame
Carving symbols next to my name
Trying to forget why I came
I came to fix it
I came to change
I came to stay
Drop
Stay
Stay
Bridge
Cut the rope and let the anchor sink down deep
Promises are things I struggle hard to keep
But there is a crack where the yellow light gets through
Giving me a different point of view
Maybe I am stronger than the fear
Maybe I can finally see it clear
See it clear
See it clear
Chorus
Wait for the tide to turn back home
I am sick of being all alone
Burn the maps and lose the phone
Broken bones and bitter blame
Carving symbols next to my name
Trying to forget why I came
I came to fix it
I came to change
I came to stay
Hook
Ooh ooh
I came to stay
Ooh ooh
Fix it all today
