sitting with a stranger
just about to lose my mind
when you decide
the times not right
and leave me way behind
sitting with a warrior
taking all the punches thrown
a shallow grave is made for you 
if you're gonna take on the world on your own

if this love is our home
then why am i always trying to break down the walls
and as long as there are places in your mind
im not allowed to go

trying to keep it together
swimming around you
holding my breath
waiting for a change in the weather
put up a fight
i cant scream into the dark
or be sitting with a stranger 
my whole life through
when i could be with you

love
in a desert 
will always be wondering whats its missing out on
and peace
in infested waters
can never make itself at home
so c'mon
