Please take me to the place where I’ve seen better days
Or take the bitter pill, let them line up and fire at will
I can be still

We used to wait on the beach
Searching for the rocket’s streaks
And sketch our dreams in the sand
But now the waves have eroded them

The case at hand is seminal, the foundation, near criminal
We watch as the pressure builds as they line up and shoot to kill
I can be still

We used to wait on the beach
Searching for the rocket’s streaks
And sketch our dreams in the sand
But now the waves have eroded them

Try to smile and say it’s fine when we face the firing line
Dreaming from the window sill, they line up with chambers filled
I can be still

We used to wait on the beach
Searching for the rocket’s streaks
And sketch our dreams in the sand
But now the waves have eroded them
