Paul’s Lament lyrics

Why are you here?
Why are you mad?
Why are you here?
Why are you mad?

Is 6 feet the extent of your love?
Your trust?
Is that all that stands between us?
I'll find a way to make this right
To shield the wind
And hold your light
Ask for change, pray for rain

Let it fall, let it break
Let it crash into the sea
Blinding lights of search and rescue fall off course
Let it be sure and tall
Let it question who we are
Break the framework that's enslaved us for so long

Where's the point that we break?
Where's the point that we state
That these lines are about us?
Let the stories unfold
Let the lies that we told come back and expose us
Refuse the idea of failure
Accept the fact that it's over
All this time, you were wrong
Let it fall, let it break
Let it crash into the sea
Blinding lights of search and rescue fall off course
Let it be sure and tall
Let it question who we are
Break the framework that's enslaved us for so long

Can tons of despair be held up by hopes alone?
The damage kings can do before their dethrone
When you finally realize that it's no one's fault but your own

Her: Start the countdown
Him: What took years to build, crumbled away
Her: It's almost time
Him: So, why should this be any different?
Her: Mark this building
Him: From these tombs I fear no martyrs will rise
Her: If we're still inside...
Both: At least not on my behalf

To scream in vain "All Hands On Deck"
But not one's left
Accept your fate
And go down with the ship
