lyrics

Like a thief in the night
As we stand to the side
And the worst is yet to come
You could call it a crime

And if all you've ever seen
Is all you make-believe

They claim you're floating aimlessly
Living dangerously
Fill your days to see
All the ways

You keep your anxious tendencies
Flowing endlessly
Wade into the deep
Wait for calmer seas

Let me out before I almost drown
I know I heard the sound
Of waves that mold the ground
So fleetingly

Eroded hopes of yesterday
With promises that lead astray

Like a thief in the night
As we stand to the side
And the worst is yet to come
You could call it a crime

Like a raft in the dark
Holding out for the land
While it's led by the light
From a shaky hand

They claim you're floating shamelessly
Offer agency
Fill your days to plead
And relay the things

That form discrepancies
Done so desperately
Anchored history
Claiming destiny

Eroded hopes of yesterday
With promises that lead astray

Like a thief in the night
As we stand to the side
And the worst is yet to come
You could call it a crime

Like a raft in the dark
Holding out for the land
While it's led by the light
From a shaky hand

Grasping out so cautiously
It slips
It slips

Through my fingers cold and weak
Jump ship
Jump ship

Toss my head up to the ceiling
Where I almost catch the sinking feeling

Like a thief in the night
As we stand to the side
And the worst is yet to come
You could call it a crime

Like a raft in the dark
Holding out for the land
While it's led by the light
From a shaky hand

Encouraged by the hopes
Of a new yesterday
With promises bright
That follow the way

And we're falling in oceans
Vast, unknown
With a map in hands
To chart your own

Forgetting all the fears
Of another day
These promises shine
And fall away

Jumping in oceans
Wide, unknown
With a map in steady hands
To chart your own
