Stranded (Original)

Lyrics:Show more

I'm stranded on this island that I built
Alone in the middle of my sea of guilt
I've tried to float away from this prison of mine
But it seems not even I can escape my own design

[So tear down my walls and with them make a raft
I dare you to try and make me laugh
I know you can rescue my injured soul
Battered by the waves of endless cold
My metal sky has been dented
It's raining tears but I'm stranded]

Your eyes are the sun
And mine are slowly wilting flowers
I drink up your love
And with every passing hour
I feel the waves recede, your touch is like magic
And with the slow retreat, I gain my sanity back
And just knowing you'll be here is worth more than all my tears

[Chorus]

And for once, this island I'm on just might feel like home
As long as you stay
Cause I have finally found that I'm safe and sound
Just please don't sail away

So build up these walls with this empty raft
You finally found how to make me laugh
Do you think you could love this injured soul?
You brought in the light and chased out the cold

My broken wings have been mended
You saved me, I'm no longer stranded
