When the years are long
And the shifts are small
And the inch is won
But the mountain’s tall
See the ocean roar
Feel the waves crash hard
And you breach the shore
But the sirens call
Watch the embers rise
But the ashes fall
We gave more than we realized
Just to have it all
And the engine strains
And the gears grind on
Through a driving rain
Until the road is gone
And we hope for love
But we fight for hope
Watch the embers rise
But the ashes fall
We gave more than we realized
Just to have it all
When you feel your footing slip
Wait
When you feel the only good
Is hate
Breathe
When you feel your footing slip
Wait
When you feel the only good
Is hate
Breathe
