Stolen Sun - Anchors Lyrics

I see shadows dancing once again
I hear footsteps every now and then
I lay in bed staring at the door
But no one lives there, no, no one lives here anymore
Do you remember?
The night you left me broken and alone
With no one there to save me

Where were you? When I was dying?
Where were you? With no one there to save me?

It's not as easy as you may think
To save ourselves, when we have nothing
Nothing left to give!

As I slowly drift to sea, I want so badly to believe
This is not the end for me, this is not the end for me

Round and round and round it goes
And where it stops only God knows
But I'm the devil's son with hell to pay, and something to say
If I yell does it increase my meaning?
Does it matter if no one's listening?

I ain't no prodigal

Do I even deserve to live?
Am I living, living on borrowed time?
Like a man gripping his rosary, I hang on to an empty life
All things have become the same to me, a church, a coffin, a home
Round and round and round it goes, and where it stops maybe no one knows

Living isn't living if it's done out of fear
Freedom can't be tasted with those feelings so near
There's grace in letting go

As I slowly drift to sea, I want so badly to believe
This is not the end for me, this is not the end for me
As the waves crash over me, I find one final breath to sing
This is not the end for me, this is not the end for me

Close the page on the chapter of this life
Stand up straight, wipe your eyes and get on living
I want so badly to believe that this, this is not the end for me

As sure as the sun will rise, I will be by your side

By your side

Oh Father, my Father, where have you been?
I feel your presence but I'm lost in the wind
Oh Father, my Father, your voice has faded from me
Like a wave crashing down, has now drifted back to sea

As I slowly drift to sea, I want so badly to believe
This is not the end for me, this is not the end for me
As the waves crash over me, I find one final breath to sing
This is not the end for me, this is not the end for me

Now I'm getting tossed at sea
No anchor, no sails to guide me
I'm in need of your voice, and your steady hands
To put me back on course

With my head, buried in my hands
I have tried, I have tried
To answer the question, the question of why

Where were you, when I needed you?

I was there
I was there
I've always been there!

As the doubt washes over me like the water that drowns me
I find myself filled with despair
Reaching out, crying out
For anything, for anyone
To save me!

As I slowly drift to sea, I want so badly to believe
This is not the end for me, this is not the end for me
As the waves crash over me, I find one final breath to sing
This is not the end for me, this is not the end for me
