Average

Men with pale faces
Sneak their way through the cold
United in silence, divided by choice
Secretly wishing they don't make it home
This time
They keep approaching life
Like ascending the scaffold
I wonder if i will
I wonder how they have become
Like this
Now growing up seems like a threat to me
But i refuse to trade my dreams
I can see it in their eyes
That life has taken it's toll
And i can hear it in their talk
That they paid it with hope
Like blind, like deaf
Like lost at sea
Why would you stand there watch them drown
Like blind, like deaf
Like lost at sea

Get rid of every anchor
That keeps you in this place
Or did you ever ask to stay
Your bones were never made of stone
It was yourself who pulled you under the sea

I'm just trying to stick to the promises
That i once made
To always try to be victorious
To keep to myself
Let's define ourselves through positivity
Let's define ourselves through hope

Get rid of every anchor
That keeps you in this place
Or did you ever ask to stay
Your bones were never made of stone
It was yourself who pulled you under the sea

Why would you stand there watch them drown
Watch me drown
