lyrics
I've been counting the days since
I left you in a strangers arms
With no other reason
But to find myself and escape my home
I got lost in the pages
Caught up in stories not my own
Now i'm left here guessing
Which way i should go
I tried to write a letter in the sand
The ocean took the words right from my hands
You will never hear these thoughts
Floating round in my head
I tried to explain how
All the things that I've done wrong
Left me with nothing
But calloused hands and a heart of stone
I told you I need you
I don't do well on my own
I tried to write a letter in the sand
The ocean took these words right from my hands
You will never hear these thoughts
Floating round in my head
I've been writing for days now
All the things i never said
Maybe it's time i
Put these words to rest
I left you in a strangers arms
With no other reason
But to find myself and escape my home
I got lost in the pages
Caught up in stories not my own
Now i'm left here guessing
Which way i should go
I tried to write a letter in the sand
The ocean took the words right from my hands
You will never hear these thoughts
Floating round in my head
I tried to explain how
All the things that I've done wrong
Left me with nothing
But calloused hands and a heart of stone
I told you I need you
I don't do well on my own
I tried to write a letter in the sand
The ocean took these words right from my hands
You will never hear these thoughts
Floating round in my head
I've been writing for days now
All the things i never said
Maybe it's time i
Put these words to rest
