I woke up by the ocean
breeze running through your golden hair
empty palms but relieved
as we share this memory
I don't need those bags
I've carried way too much trash
I won't hold it
I'll let it go
I don't need those bags
I've carried way too much trash
my mirror of yesterday melts away
Kingfisher crossing the sea
We'll be watching him silently
Your eyes make me believe
That it is all just memories
Memories heavy
Heavy on me
I don't need those bags I've carried
way too much trash
I won't hold it
I'll let it go
I don't need those bags
I've carried
way too much trash
my mirror of yesterday melts away
If you follow me to the river
we'll swim together to the other side
So just follow me to the river deep
We'll swim together to the other side
I don't need those bags I've carried
way too much trash
I won't hold it
I'll let it go
I don't need those bags
I've carried
way too much trash
my mirror of yesterday melts away

Something wants to get out
Something wants to shout
But something inside is saying “be quiet now”
Noiseless though my head is loud
An ocean of doubt.
Still some other thing is saying
“be quiet now, be quiet now”
But It’s been quiet for way too long
On the verge of eruption, I fall.
Wolves in the night,
why did they stop howling from their white hearts?
Have I been drowning them?
Quiet way too long
Silent, though your strong
Quiet way too long
Quiet way too long
The beauty of these beasts
Won’t ever be revealed
If I will keep them caged in a place that no one knows
I never wanted to be trouble
but the silence made it double
I heard that if you don’t let them out in time, they might eat you up alive
Eat your guts and your pride
But It’s been quiet for way too long
On the verge of eruption,
I fall into the night
Why did the wolves stop howling from their white hearts?
Have I been drowning them?
In my weary head
I know what I should have said In my weary head
My soul knows what
I should have said.
