Beautiful Sorrow

The midnight ocean pulls me down In this empty town, I wear a crown of ghosts A steady rhythm in my head The words you left unsaid, they hurt the most I walk the shoreline in the dark Trying to find a spark, but I am hollowed out The island breeze is breathing slow Where did the feeling go? I'm trapped in doubt And the waves start rising up Filling up my bitter cup Hear the ticking of the clock Brace before the tremor hits the rock The pressure is building, the air becomes cold I'm losing my grip on the stories we told Shatter the quiet, tear through the night I'm drowning in heavy, I'm losing the light The rhythm is teeth, tearing apart The armor I built to protect my own heart A beautiful sorrow, an island of pain I'm waiting for sunshine but caught in the rain Hold me under the weight of the sound Until my tears hit the ground The shadows stretch across the sand I used to hold your hand, but now there's empty space A heavy pulse beneath my feet A broken, lonely beat I cannot chase The atmosphere is turning gray Washing the colors away into the silent sea I breathe you in, I let you out But you are nothing but a memory And the waves start rising up Filling up my bitter cup Hear the ticking of the clock Brace before the tremor hits the rock The pressure is building, the air becomes cold I'm losing my grip on the stories we told Shatter the quiet, tear through the night I'm drowning in heavy, I'm losing the light The rhythm is teeth, tearing apart The armor I built to protect my own heart A beautiful sorrow, an island of pain I'm waiting for sunshine but caught in the rain Hold me under the weight of the sound Until my tears hit the ground Floating away on a digital breeze Drifting alone through the darkest of seas I close my eyes and I wait for the crash Watching the memories turn into ash A whisper of thunder, a trembling floor I cannot run from the storm anymore Shatter the quiet, tear through the night I'm drowning in heavy, I'm losing the light The rhythm is teeth, tearing apart The armor I built to protect my own heart A beautiful sorrow, an island of pain I'm waiting for sunshine but caught in the rain Hold me under the weight of the sound Until my tears hit the ground Until my tears hit the ground Just a ghost in the sound Fading out, fading down In this empty, empty town
