empty hands - close your eyes lyrics

i am all alone; your words have never brought me peace
they rain down upon my head and destroy everything
with weary eyes i stare at the sea
in the distance i hear you call out for me

i am so tired of running away
only to come back right where i had buried this with my hands

still you tell me that i can be trusted with a burden that i never wanted
no matter how i try to push you away i still hear you call out to me

i’m not the better man i’m called to be
why can’t i escape? you pull me under the waves.
i’m the one who made this sea
it’s taken everything from me
still you try to sing me to sleep.

but i buried this with my hands.
no matter what i try i keep coming back.

there were days that i asked for this to change, but there was a fear inside of me
a fear that made me question who i am and why i’m capable of such horrible things
and every single promise that you whispered in my ear,
that fear just kept growing until it consumed me.
but i let that fear go, and i can see who you are. your words gave me nothing
i’ve been running away for too long; i’m not running anymore
i will stand my ground and scream out loud

my heart won’t be yours.

so i buried this with my hands.
and no matter what you try i won’t be coming back.

i’m not the better man i’m called to be
why can’t i escape? you pull me under the waves.
i’m the one who made this sea
it’s taken everything from me
and no matter what you try you won’t sing me to sleep.
