Lyrics

[Verse 1] In fields where nothing grew but weeds I found a flower at my feet Bending there in my direction I wrapped a hand around its stem I pulled until the roots gave in Finding there what I'd been missing But I know... So I tell myself, I tell myself it's wrong There's a point we pass from which we can't return I felt the cold rain of the coming storm [Hook] All because of you I haven't slept in so long When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean Longing for the shore where I can lay my head down I'll follow your voice All you have to do is shout it out [Verse 2] Inside my hands these petals browned Dried up, fallen to the ground But it was already too late now I pushed my fingers through the earth Returned this flower to the dirt So it could live. I walked away now But I know... Not a day goes by that I don't feel this burn There's a point we pass from which we can't return I felt the cold rain of the coming storm [Hook] All because of you I haven't slept in so long When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean Longing for the shore where I can lay my head down I'll follow your voice All you have to do is shout it out [Bridge] All because of you... All because of you... [Extended Hook] All because of you I haven't slept in so long When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean Longing for the shore where I can lay my head down Inside these arms of yours All because of you I believe in angels Not the kind with wings No, not the kind with halos The kind that bring you home When home becomes a strange place I'll follow your voice All you have to do is shout it out [Instrumental Outro]
