Rumors silenced every note
Big shot courage never known
Forced from the world
Sinking back in to the lone
Paddles wilting, hear their cries whispering to ears of stone
And the story goes

I won't stay buried forever
One can be more than a million
This I swear, I will never say sorry
You'll thank me when this is over

Of course I memorized the words
Perfection sharpened, they begin, a flower reaches out for the sun
And I don't feel powerful
A rot that hollows out the gore divides the absence on its own
Dead streets paved in gold

I won't stay buried forever
One can be more than a million
This I swear, I will never say sorry
You'll thank me when this is over

Begin to see who we were
A single note, a single drop of rain
So fragile more, you must leave
A drop of rain evaporates and has damped the street
You want it to pour
So this is water, you know this is water
A million drops to get them doused
The river's unconditional love will become so strong 

I won't stay buried forever
One can be more than a million
This I swear, I will never say sorry
You'll thank me when this is over

I won't stay buried forever
One can be more than a million
This I swear, I will never say sorry
You'll thank me when this is over
