The Albatross Lyrics

They said all would be forgiven
When we found ourselves back home
There'd be rest here for the wicked
But we pray God, that part of you is gone

And she's been sleeping medicated
I've got the television on
Something dumbed down and sedated
Just so I won't have to be alone

And this is what we get for trying to be heroes
And dragging silhouettes across the floor
And the curtains draw back, and shocked she whispers
"Everything is different"

We all have big ideas
And with our hearts upon our sleeves
Oh, we bring them out into the open
Hope the world will see it as we see

And this is what we get for trying to be heroes
And dragging silhouettes across the floor
And the curtains draw back and lips form whispers
"Everything is different"

And she opens up
To confide in me
But she can't be sure
I am right here

And we run through water to lose our shadows
And we run through water to lose our shadows

And this is what we get for trying to be heroes
And dragging silhouettes across the floor
And the curtains draw back, she barely whispers
"Can you see the difference?"

And the curtains draw back, she barely whispers
And everything is different

And we run through water to lose our shadows
