Lyrics

You know they always say it isn’t easy
To be the one who the others follow
Can’t show the wounds from leading the charge
Must take the pain and just brace and swallow
To risk the path where no-one has tread
For platitudes that will ring too hollow

When the tide goes out
Become unknown
When the tide goes out
Forced to atone
When the tide goes out
No longer condoned
When the tide goes out
And be left alone

You’d think it would be just so simple
To leave behind the sights and horrors
But the memories keep invading my brain
And reaching deep into hidden corners
The only respite is to find my peace
Of solitude when surrounded by others

When the tide goes out
Become unknown
When the tide goes out
Forced to atone
When the tide goes out
No longer condoned
When the tide goes out
And be left alone

Alone
Be alone
Be alone

When the tide goes out
Become unknown
When the tide goes out
Forced to atone
When the tide goes out
No longer condoned
When the tide goes out
And be left alone
