Lyrics for Opal

I'm sorry for your loss, please come back to us All that we've been has all come and gone so easily I don't wanna be in this fight When all the plans that we've birthed all fold their wings and die Are you diggin' deep to find somethin' You buried long ago Where sleepin' giants should lie? You've been holdin' up an idea that's fatal These beautiful distractions move I see your hand, you're here by choice You're drownin' in the silence of these broken rules Release the overflow, take it off the edge Under the will of these chemicals so easily Sick of the pain in your stomach, you try to cover your mouth But the words keep spillin' out and your hand's not quick enough How far will you go to finish This desperate attempt to revive? Somethin' you buried long ago Where sleepin' giants should lie Don't bow down and give in, it's just the beginnin' These poisonous snakes hide in the reeds patiently We're not guilty, they just bought the jury This conviction is so meaningless Anonymously, in all honesty, I wouldn't show them you care I'd be so still and quiet like death was around Quiet like death was around You've been holdin' up an idea that's fatal This beautiful distraction moves Not seen or heard, you're here by choice You're drownin' in the silence below No chance to survive How far will you go to finish This desperate attempt to revive? Somethin' you buried long ago Where sleepin' giants should lie Should lie
