watershed moment

Watershed moment when I told her there was no chance
a million little pieces would have been better as one
this ain't the same scholar that you met last holiday new year
but darling don't deny it, i was always born to run

you could meet me at the lake and hope that I will be forgiving
but more than likely I will hold a candle up to you
it's just to singe your perfect skin and issue retribution
it doesn't mean a thing to me, and I don't love you too

and it's time to rise above your sinking tides
I'll arise to light and never know what darkness is again

Watershed moment when you don't look back, but forward
maybe you're progressing and the world won't ever change
but you know that that's impossible and we're all slowly fading
and nothing's ever normal, she took half of all you claim

and it's time to rise above your sinking tides
I'll arise to light and never know what darkness is again
and the signs are bright when you flood them in the night
all the roads will try to bring you back to where you don't wanna be
to bring you back to belonging, so it seems

Watershed moment when you're coming to an ending
it's amazing how you find a way to split the differences
like a bridge you burned back when you said there's no such thing as romance
the smoke is in your eyes and now her hands are still in his

and it's time to rise above your sinking tides
I'll arise to light and never know what darkness is again
