Tidal Wave

Tidal Wave
I wish I could cross my arms,
and cross your mind
Cause I believe you'd unfold your paper heart
and wear it on your sleeve
All my life I wish I broke mirrors,
instead of promises
Cause all I see, is a shattered conscience
staring right back at me
I wish I had covered all my tracks completely cause
I'm so afraid
Is that the light at the far end of the tunnel or just the train?
Lift your arms only heaven knows, where the danger grows
And it's safe to say there's a bright light
up ahead and help is on the way
(Help is on the way, Help is on the way,
Help is on the way...)

Help is on the way
I forget the last time I felt brave,
I just recall insecurity
Cause it came down like a tidal wave,
and sorrow swept over me
Depression, please cut to the chase
and cut a long story short
Oh please be done. How much longer can this
drama afford to run?
Fate looks sharp, severs all my ties and breaks
whatever doesn't bend
But sadly then, all my heavy hopes just pull me
back down again
(Back down again, back down again, back down again...)
I forget the last time I felt brave,
I just recall insecurity
Cause it came down like a tidal wave,
and sorrow swept over me
Then I was given grace and love,
I was blind but now I can see
Cause I found a new hope from above,
and courage swept over me
It hurts just to wake up, whenever you're wearing thin
Alone on the outside, so tired of looking in
The end is uncertain and I've never been so afraid
But I don't need a telescope to see that there's hope
And that makes me feel brave
