Through Storms Ahead

As I Lay Dying

Compositor: Não Disponível

Without direction
Impact was imminent
Without direction
Calamity was only a matter of time
Without direction
I boarded the ship I built
And locked myself in it
Then cut the line to sail
Through storms ahead

Such arrogance to complain
As it sunk and no one came
Callously trying to explain
How everyone else is to blame
I had to be set free
On open and turbulent seas
Wondering if anything
Was looking over me
Without direction
Calamity was only a matter of time

I'd given up on searching
There was no way out for me
I'd given up searching
When the walls came crashing down
There was no way for me
When the floods took everything
I'd given up, I'd given in
Surrendered, then hope broke in

Then hope broke in
Preparing me to swim
Through storms ahead
Past numbing emptiness
Back to feeling once again
Through mending and agony
Into turmoil needed to see
My whole life rearranged
And beauty born from disarray

I'd given up on searching
There was no way out for me
I'd given up searching
When the walls came crashing down
There was no way for me
When the floods took everything
I'd given up, I'd given in
Surrendered, then hope broke in

My soul was spilled out of me
Into a refining sea
Through storms ahead
Through storms ahead
Without direction
Impact was imminent
Without direction
Calamity was only a matter of time

I'd given up on searching
I'd given up on searching
There was no way out for me
I'd given up searching
When the walls came crashing down
There was no way for me
When the floods took everything
I'd given up, I'd given in
Surrendered, then hope broke in
Then hope broke in
Then hope broke in

Through storms ahead
Through storms ahead
