You Be The Anchor That Keeps My Feet On The Ground, I'll Be The Wings That Keep Your Heart In The Cl
Mayday Parade

And honestly, I have been begging for answers

That you and only you can give to me

A voice crying loud

I've been crying for days now

And as I start to run, I stop to breathe

(Cause I was nearly scared to death)

And I was nearly scared to death

(Why you left in paragraphs)

Why you left in paragraphs

(The words were nearly over as)

The words were nearly over as

You stop and turn and grab your bags


And I'll be here by the ocean

Just waiting for proof that there's sunsets and silhouette dreams

All my sand castles fall like the ashes of cigarettes

And every wave drags me to sea

I could stand here for hours

Just to ask God the question, Is everyone here make-believe?

With a tear in His voice, He said, Son, that's the question.

Does this deafening silence mean nothing to no one but me?


As hours move to minutes

And minutes take longer to break

I will be desperately awaiting

When my tongue won't fall apart

And we've been sitting here for hours

All alone and in the dark


So let me think of how to word it

Is it too soon to say 'perfect'?

If I could find another thirty minutes somewhere

I'm sure everything would find me

All that's left is just to sing


And I'll be here by the ocean

Just waiting for proof that there's sunsets and silhouette dreams

All my sand castles fall like the ashes of cigarettes

And every waves drags me to sea

I could stand here for hours

Just to ask God the question, Is everyone here make-believe?

With a tear in His voice, He said, Son, that's the question.

Does this deafening silence mean nothing to no one but me?


And you'll sing to me sweet until then

I may never sail Virginia again

And as this current moves slow for me

This much you must know; we'll meet again

And I will have you know I'm scared to death


Tell me once again

That you'll love me to the death

And should I die, you swear that you will come for me

As I fade away, you reach out your arms

(And please don't let me go)

And please don't let me go

(And please don't let me go)

And please don't let me go


And I'll be here by the ocean

Just waiting for proof that there's sunsets and silhouette dreams

All my sand castles fall like the ashes of cigarettes

And every waves drags me to sea

I could stand here for hours

Just to ask God the question, Is everyone here make-believe?

With a tear in His voice, He said, Son, that's the question.

Does this deafening silence mean nothing to no one but me?
