Amongst Heroes - The Author lyrics


ad
Bottled up and thrown away,
Drowning in the deep.
This shame carries a weight
You can't sink in your sleep.

All this time spent behind the walls,
These barriers
Built high to keep away anything that could make you feel.
Man the towers, we can't see you slip.
I wonder what it's like to burn
With no room to let in love

And I can tell that you're not living,
You're just trying hard to breathe.
What will it take for me
To put you at ease.

Open up to me,
You can't do this on your own.
You've been living like you think
That you could make it
Alone.
Living like a fugitive
In this world
That's all you've ever known

Faltering further
As you let the wind take
The things that made you
A mountain that won't brake
I know you're to scared to wake up
And I'm doing the best that I can
To make you strong enough
To open your eyes

Let me show you
That there's no need for you to hide
Your purpose, your strength
And everything that makes you okay
Are right before you
Open your eyes

And I can tell
That you're not living
You're just trying hard to breathe
What will it take for me
To put you at ease.

This can't be the end of you
With a silent surrender to dreams unfulfilled

I won't let you quit while your heart's still beating
I'll walk this with you If you'd take my hand

You're in control of everything that defines you
So please believe me when I say

You're not lost
Until you give up on yourself
You're not lost
Turn the page and start again

You are the author

Open up your eyes
You're in control of everything that defines you
Open up your eyes
You're not lost,
Turn the page and start again
