Kyle Bihrle - The Waters lyrics

I see it happening Right before my eyes I've never been the type To let words affect me Or to give into verbal warfare Of malicious intent and purpose It's a vicious cycle Of hungry egos feasting on The weaknesses of those Too uncertain to stand up for their beliefs Hear me now This is our battle cry Hold your ground This is our call to arms How can a heart so hollow Sink like it's made of stone? How can a soul so empty Feel so full of hope? I could drown in my own misery Or keep my head above the waters This body is just a vessel In a sea of treachery How can you think of no one else When you place the weight of the world On their unwelcoming shoulders I will shake This looming shadow of persistence And emerge as the peering light Of a new day
