Life, Like Statues

I never said goodbye
I anchored vessels with silence
Thinking I had time
But I was wrong
I watched the sunrise
And the stars
They watch me sleep at night
So safely
They keep me from forever fading

And I'll pray you're in a better place
And I swear that
I don't want to be the one to bind you
I don't want to be the one to
Hold you back
You're worth so much more than that

I never said goodbye
And it's the last time
I build up walls just to pass time
Reel in the anchor
And chart the waters

Open your eyes
And learn to breathe
When the air sets fire

I watched the sunrise
And the stars
They watch me sleep at night
So safely
They keep me from forever fading
And light the way back home

Go

I swear you'd be proud
I swear you'd be proud

And I'll pray you're in a better place
And I swear that
I don't want to be the one to bind you
I don't want to be the one to
Hold you back
You're worth so much more than that
