The Pilot

Lyrics

Behind these eyes is a wall you can't break through Staggered seams and greenish glue Afraid the prisoner might escape Afraid of sounds that he might make I'm not hiding, it's just self-defense I know it always don't make sense So don't ask me why or where I went It's just a place I go to avoid the present tense I'm just glad I made it back When the tide was low and the sun went black Try to sleep, maybe find some peacе Maybe God will even spеak to me Like an old friend in a dream New advice to fight the enemy Would that make me feel better Or just miss you even more? Waking up too early, try to remember what I'm looking for A flash of white or an orange glow On the dock, I swear I'm not alone Takes a river of faith, I pray I've got Every ounce and every drop I swear I'm stronger than I've let on But the light feels dimmer since you're gone I'm screaming to myself in silence Stop the pain, kill the violence I wear the metal, a heart of violet I've got the wheel, I am the pilot Today's a battle, but I'll win the war The tide will turn, I'll even up the score I see pictures clearer than I have before Write down all the names of everyone I'm fighting for I'm fighting for Today's a battle, but I'll win the war The tide will turn, I'll even up the score I see pictures clearer than I have before Write down all the names of everyone I'm fighting for I'm fighting for
