Lyrics

Can you remember?
What the future held
A little candy ring
And a mystic oceans shell
But they were all anesthetized
And slowly washed away
Left all the poison in the sands in which I played

I don't mind falling down and scraping up my knees
Scars and stitches always fade and only strengthen me
But with my eyes as wide as pearls
My only centerpiece
Is taken like a dead mans urn and tossed into the sea

Write me like a letter
And dot your i's and cross you t's
Nothing was everything to me
Under the monsters claws and in between his teeth
Was the shadow and a silhouette of what I'd thought I'd be

I don't mind falling down and scraping up my knees
Scars and stitches always fade and only strengthen me
But with my eyes as wide as pearls
My only centerpiece
Is floating on the ocean's bed
And floats there endlessly
Well it's taken like a dead mans urn and tossed into the sea
