Against The Tide

[Verse 1]

I finally get what you've been saying

Now that we're knee deep side by side

The storm clouds are circling above us

As we struggle

Against the tide

[Verse 2]

I feel your grip firm on my shoulder

But this fear in my head won't subside

They patiently circle around us

As we hold out

[Verse 3]

Oh father, why have they forsaken me?

You warned me that they would

With curses passing down the bloodline

Unspoken and misunderstood

We're losing light

And strength of will

The darkened depths beckoning still

Then we hold on

Against the tide

[Verse 4]

Beneath the storm and left to fight alone

Remember son, you're reaping what you've sown

Under the waves and sinking like a stone

I'm sorry son, you're reaping what you've sown

Beneath the storm and left to fight alone

Remember son, you're reaping what you've sown

Under the waves and sinking like a stone

I'm sorry son, you're reaping what you've sown

You're reaping what you've sown

[Bridge]

You're reaping what you've sown

You're reaping what you've sown (You're reaping what you've sown, sown!)

[Verse 5]

We're slowly losing ground

And hope is harder to maintain

When all the prayers we prayed feel lost like tears in the rain

The waters pouring down

The moon's eclipsing the sun

The ending that we knew would come has finally begun

[Bridge]

(Help me hold out)

(You're reaping what you've sown!)

It's finally begun

You're reaping what you've sown (You're reaping what you've sown!)

(Help me hold out)

I'm sorry son, you're reaping what you've sown

You're reaping what you've sown

(You're reaping what you've sown!)

[Verse 6]

This sorrow weighs down on my shoulders

This fear's getting harder to hide

You'll leave me alone in this darkness

Left to hold out

Against the tide
