lyrics

strong blows the wind
winter air upon a summer morning
looking at the sky as it falls
i always knew this day would come
but never heard the warning

holding my body over him
watching everything he feels push me away
i know there isn’t much i can do
but please let me be here, let it be what it may

you know
i would turn back time if i could
make all the story book tiles
do something good for you
i wish there was something
in your face i could see
that i knew how to hold,
and not just let be

silence; it’s all i know when i feel too much
i feel guilty for your hand on mine when i just do nothing
slipping down through my fingers like hot grains of sand
i’m afraid i’ll fall trying to fly, but stillness is crushing

steady, you’d hold me so high
it’s scary that you don’t know what to do,
when all i do is follow
staring up at the ceiling for the hundredth time
wondering what i would do if it had happened tomorrow

i don’t know how i am still holding on
keeping a stony face
when everything i love is dead and long gone
someone, please, tell me what i’m supposed to do
i’m an anchor that’s sinking, because i will always follow you

will we be okay?
i hope that one day
we will finally say
i’m glad that it’s gone
will we be okay?
i’m waiting for a day
where i can finally say
it’s over now
the hurting is done

(follow, follow
follow me down to the depths of the sea
follow, follow
we’ll be okay if it’s just you and me
follow, follow
follow me down to the depths of the sea
follow, follow
we’ll be okay if it’s just you and me)
