I can hear
The devil in the wind
I can feel him
Pulling on my skin
Cold winds
Flowing through the home
The bitterness
The bitterness
I can't see
Nothing in his fists
But he looks back
Arms out tightly
It's a slow move
I don't seem to care
But I'm falling back
Just standing there
Mud in the water
Blood in the water
Wait for me
Someone's coming up and I just can't see
Make me believe
That this ain't the end of you and me
I can feel winter in the wind
The coldness is coming to an end
Cold hands covering my eyes
Your hands are these, your hands
Mud in the water
Blood in the water
Wait for me
Someone's coming up and I just can't see
Make me believe
That this ain't the end of you and me
Mud in the water covering my eyes
Blood in the water covering my eyes
Mud in the water covering my eyes
Blood in the water
Wait for me
Wait for me
Wait for me
Wait for me
This ain't a garden with pretty odd flowers
Just the green, green grass
She holds her heart
He keeps on killing time
With his eyes on the dates
Figuring the lies in the ages, somehow
This ain't her service, but dark is the pit
And heavy the stars in the dirt
They hold the chains that keep on falling
To places that we shouldn't be
Beliving it could never be me
Never be me
No one's standing tall
Long is the fall
As the hope grows small
The earth that is filled keeps steady with the ground we walk
How much longer must a mother keep her faith?
Both her hands are filled with more than what she gave
All the tears falling from her face
River flows around her as she waits
No one's standing tall
And no, here's the fall
As the hope grows small
The blood that was spilt, we'll never know all that well
