[Verse 1]
A sinking ship, an awkward kiss
A chance to set things straight
The kind of hurt that burns and burns
Like fires we can't contain
We hole up in a shelter made of bones and ice and there we'll wait
To start again with steady hands
This time nothing gets in our way
But as we peer a little closer what do we see?
[Chorus]
A crack in the surface
A flaw in the plan
(Plans we made together, almost buried in the sand)
A cadence imperfect
Like a building condemned
(Can we indemnify ourselves if we don't face what we're against?)
[Verse 2]
A promise kept
The dirt unswept
A poorly worn disguise
A child unloved that then grows up
To love what we despise
We're broken but still breathing
We are wounded but we are healing
We pick up right where we left off
Breathe on the ashes that remain
So that these coals may become fire
To guide our way
A sinking ship, an awkward kiss
A chance to set things straight
The kind of hurt that burns and burns
Like fires we can't contain
We hole up in a shelter made of bones and ice and there we'll wait
To start again with steady hands
This time nothing gets in our way
But as we peer a little closer what do we see?
[Chorus]
A crack in the surface
A flaw in the plan
(Plans we made together, almost buried in the sand)
A cadence imperfect
Like a building condemned
(Can we indemnify ourselves if we don't face what we're against?)
[Verse 2]
A promise kept
The dirt unswept
A poorly worn disguise
A child unloved that then grows up
To love what we despise
We're broken but still breathing
We are wounded but we are healing
We pick up right where we left off
Breathe on the ashes that remain
So that these coals may become fire
To guide our way
