Emery - To The Deep lyrics

This is where the world ends and we leave our friends behind The sky is falling in stones of water, the river’s now in sight I have thought this all my life, but wondered if you’d try I was half asleep when my bride’s words awakened me We were always sure that the pages would be written Not from our hands but the words you left inside of us We were filling pools with ourselves and ambition And here we are drowning out from our lives To the deep, to the deep The square of forty and I sit here listening in my head The voice of angels or am I crazy, these places that were said Would build a family but nothing from her could ever grow my name Oh what lies we will believe but I’ll find my own promises to keep I set my feet on the ground I put my back to this place (The d**h here, I feel all around us) I used the words in my mouth and felt the sun on my face (Could we leave and never return) We will all weigh the cost and the friends that we’ve lost (It’s safe here but destiny’s unknowable) But for us I fear, these words I hear We were always sure that the pages would be written Not from our hands but the words you left inside of us We've been filling pools with ourselves and ambition And here we are drowning out from our lives
