As the Sea Rises

The shape of your smile is somewhere I could live
The feeling of your eyes on me, what I wouldn't give?
Am I dreaming to forget,
or escape the past so reckless and full of mistakes?

One step forward, you
Take two steps back
Seize the day
Undo a heart attack

So much work to do
Can't afford to rest
Rub salt in my wound
Wear it like a badge

I'm standing here as the sea rises
Standing here as the sea rises
I'm standing here with my heart on fire
as the sea rises
I'm standing here with my house on fire
as the sea rises
As the sea rises
As the sea rises

Heya, heya
Heya, heya
Heya, heya
Heya, heya

Message in a bottle waiting on the shore
Letter in a capsule for me to adore
I've been wondering who's to blame?
And how to brush the broken bits away

One step forward, you
Take two steps back
Seize the day
Undo a heart attack

So much work to do
Can't afford to rest
Rub salt in my wound
Wear it like a badge

I'm standing here as the sea rises
Standing here as the sea rises
I'm standing here with my heart on fire
as the sea rises
I'm standing here with my house on fire
as the sea rises
As the sea rises
As the sea rises
