In silence we stay
In stillness we wait
Our lives rearranged
By the price paid with pain
Do you remember twilight?
You see the whites in my eyes
It's safe to fire
Well, say what you want
And say what you will
But remember the cost
For failure to forgive
If the weight of the loss
Is the weight of the guilt
I surrender the blame
For the space we can heal
For the space we still live
But stay
Won't you wait
For this moment to rise
Safe. Are you safe?
Are you safe now to fire?
I see the whites of your eyes
Ahh, ahh, ahh
Who was that walkin in the dark?
Who was that singing to the stars?
Time is now, not forward or behind
What was that voice inside your mind?
Always telling you lies
Because I remember the flames
I remember the chill
You will remember your light
When you surrender to feel
Will you measure your heart?
Will you measure your will?
Because the voices will come
And the voices will kill
Because the choices we've made
From first breath to the grave
Are the same as the sum
Of consequences we face
When the past comes to haunt
And the soil's still not tilled
It's the ghosts of the past
Like statues standing still
And the time standing still
But stay
Won't you wait
For this moment to rise
Safe. Are you safe?
Are you safe now to fire?
I'm still with you
Here with you
Let's put down the knives
Safe. Are you safe?
Are you safe now to fire?
You see the whites of my eyes
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh, ahh
