Stand Amid the Roar lyrics

A side of temperance

An appetite for excess

I'm burning out like your cigarette

You! (You had me cornered)

You had me at goodbye

(I lived to watch you)

I loved to see you slip away

(I enjoyed captivity)

Staring at a car crash

We kill at weddings and live for funerals

We're taking steps on the water just to show

We do whatever we want to

Did I forget who I was

Did I forget just where I came from

Did I just lose who I am

This is the line I stand

(A feast of apathy, a shot of angst)

I! (I brought you to safety)

I carried you away

(Taking all your blame)

I dropped you in the gutter

(Hid you and protected)

Just to watch you scream

We save with violence and lie with eloquence

We're turning wine into water with abhorrence

We'll save whoever we want to

(Oh!) Did I forget who I was

Did I forget just where I came from

Did I just lose who I am

This is the fine line I stand

I'm not so confident

I'm going to be the one who takes the next step

I'm a cyclone, passion overblown

Tied to the tides that pull me in the undertow

Where the wind blows is where my body's thrown

And I can't find it

Maybe we should walk away from this

Take our proverbial walk into the sunset

Maybe we are destined to be different

We were designed for more resilience than this

But we don't know how and we live in the now

If we were smarter baby we would try to fake it

Maybe we should walk away from this

And stop being ourselves, just stop being yourself

If you want to be happy

(Oh!) Did I forget who I was

Did I forget just where I came from

Did I just lose who I am

This is the fine line I stand (Amid the roar)

This is the fine line I stand (Amid the roar)

This is the fine line I...
