I've been pushing, pulling
Fighting against the tides
I've been holding my breath
With my eyes open wide
I've been waiting for the impact
Waiting for the hit that knocks me off my feet
I've been staring at the waves now
Terrified that they will carry me off to sea
Oh, to see
The waves break before me
And I close my eyes and breathe
And I start to wander
Further through the sea
How could something so wild
Something so dangerous also be pure
How could something so gentle
Something so peaceful also drown and roar
Roar
I struggle to know which side of you is more
Do you love destruction
Or do love and peace flow forth
Then I start to listen
Then I hear a voice that I could not ignore
We would not know grace
If we did not know pain
The contrast of our scars
Our scars
