Seemed like it always rained no matter where we'd be
To this day it remains a constant part of our anatomy
Dives turned to diamonds while we planted our seeds
The garden grew around us
when they found us as a beautiful machine
All that we loved went into hiding
All this hiding tore us apart
Our machine and all its beauty became a ghost to us all

Fight through the minutes
through the hours, all the days to cry out
This has grown way beyond me
You can't be seen among the living until you cry out
This has grown way beyond me now

Torn by confusion, fueled by nonsense
Step from the mountain, from its shade
no regrets left to be paid
There's violent blood on my shirt, glory in my head
I was staggering in patience wondering why I said

These are the miles, heavy and blue
These are the places we stare into
We went to give into the throws of the city
to the folds of the fields
So much noise

Walking upright from the mountain
Straight into a golden hum
The smiles that worked against you
Shimmer, then are gone

Shake off all the heavy noise (just let it go away)
Time to clean out what you carry
(and let the song you say)
Bury the sorrow and suffering (just let it go away)
And what we used to be

Drag your tongue across these bricks
then bleed into the mortar
Make it yours again

Wicked doubt it does possess; it is a vine persistent
Make it yours again
Knowing all the triggers, beautiful in its tragedy
Tripping from the memories of this beautiful machine
In soft rain with songbirds she answers, I am yours

Island, alone is crushing
Dry is killing. Island
Once was nothing now as always
I am waiting

This has grown so way beyond me now

To me you are an island
A line where the sky meets the sea
We can turn away or go there
Hey island on horizon, your shores will never be far
We can turn away or go there
Fill my eyes with your yesterdays and beyond

I'm lost without her voice to shine
and save me from those rainy days
This hurts to say, these are the last days that she'll save

She is the love that holds it all
She is the way
She is love
