Flowers In The Water (Corvallis 2012)

lyrics

Walking away from the graveyard
Above what remains of those you once knew
Carrying the weight of all your memories
As you reach the fate that they've come to
Oh did the costs outweigh the benefits
Of knowing the ones that have left you here?
And will you ever again feel another's affection
As you sit at a table filled with empty chairs?
And you've said it before you'd like to live forever
But do you really want to be the last to go?
And as you adorn what's left of what you have to offer
A shadow is cast over all that you know
And as the weight that you carry compromises your efforts
Of moving in the direction that you'd wish you go
You call out in a forced surrender
In a final attempt to retain your hope

Love me, love me till the day that I die
Or light up your torch and head off into the night
Oh love me, love me till the day that I die
Or light up your torch and head off into the night
Love me, love me till the day that I die
Or light up your torch and head off into the night
Oh love me, love me till the day that I die
Or light up your torch and head off into the night

Another one down, more flowers in the water
Trying to cast your burdens at the altar
Oh how much must one endure in this life
Before reaching the conclusion that it isn't worth the price?
Now I've seen the future as it comes and goes
Greeting each departure with another stone
Eventually to see my own name engraved
Pleading to the moment for more time to wait

Love me, love me till the day that I die
Or light up your torch and head off into the night
Oh love me, love me till the day that I die
Or light up your torch and head off into the night
Love me, love me till the day that I die
Or light up your torch and head off into the night
Oh love me, love me till the day that I die
Or light up your torch and head off into the night
