I'll be the lion that's guarding the foot of your bed I won't be the ghost of the man who's ashamed of his d**h Push the pace, watch the clock tick away I'll be the lion that's guarding the foot of your bed I won't be the ghost of the man who's ashamed of his d**h Push the pace, watch the clock tick away We progress, shake it off, carry on Watch the waves when they drag me out Like I can fix this Anchors have held me down all along Storm the stage with the heart that's pleasant for the people to see Loyalty is just not as present as I wish it could be Push the pace, watch the clock tick away We progress, shake it off, carry on Watch the waves when they drag me out Like I can fix this Anchors have held me down all along I see hope and it's shining out through the distance Anchors have held me down long enough There's a song in my head When it plays I can tell there's a way to express how I feel When the melody sticks, feel your heart take a hit Understand that there's truth here for all of us There's truth for all Watch the waves when they drag me out Like I can fix this Anchors have held me down all along I see hope and it's shining out through the distance Anchors have held me down long enough
