The Rowboat Man

Breaking through the waves, above the sea
A man in a rowboat waving back at me

And I feel, a bit better

Braving bold new roads, sits on the tree's
A little boy who has forgotten me
He lives on top a hill, watching clouds blowing in the breeze

He doesn't know where tomorrow goes
Never pricked a finger on a rose
He has no regrets until he meets me, he only stares, and then he knows

I'll never see
Forever

Where will those happy days go
When the sun starts to weep
Where will the coming days go
When I go to sleep

What happens when I let go
Of everything I see
Where do all memories go if
tomorrow I'll never be

I'm picking up the pieces of my soul
They're like broken glass I step on
The bleeding's out of control

Sticks and stones will break my bones
But words will always kill me
And I'm still me
Still regretting every day
My sadness always stays

Oh, the tales i tell you wont believe
Cause theyll never be told

...

And so the little boy fell from his tree
The branches scratched at him and scraped his knee
He now has his regrets, he'll never climb a tree
So now his days are gone, the happiest he'll be
He's sleeping in the hilltop breeze

I woke up weeping, next to uncharted sea
With no idea what's ahead of me
And with the little boy, the happiest I'll be
A memory is all I see

I remember falling in a dream
Where flowers seemed to smile at me
We'd follow the sun, the happiness it'd bring
Until I woke buried under snow

Now its melted into a deep sea
Where I lost myself in my worries
The feathery feeling of being carefree
Is no longer who I can be

In this world the sea covers everything
On this lone island only I can cling
Here all alone my heart keeps aching
With the melancholy it brings

Diving below the clouds, an angel sings
One little blackbird soars with broken wings
He brings my memories, I remember longing
For forever, for the years filled with daydreams

For when I too reached the clouds
For when I'd finally love, the life I lived
For when I could feel proud

One day I saw across the misty sea
One day so far away from me, that day i saw, i see
The face of the old rowboat man, of what could come to be
I glimpsed at a possibility

His back would face the road ahead of him
He had no doubts, he looked at where he'd been
He smiled warmly at me, and suddenly the dark wasn't as dim
Not with him

I walked along the shore next to waves
I'm still unsure if this life I can save
I found a rowboat, on it is engraved
Why the man smiles
For he finally forgave

What is left of my soul I'll save
What's dead in me deserves a grave
I dont know what's ahead
Cant look past words I never said
I dont what is left, but I'll still give it
My love, I hid it, my life I'll live it
With no fear of where tomorrow goes
Its near

Every year the water grows ever closer
To overwhelming me,  soon I'll be lost at sea
I'm a message with no bottle at the beach
Soon the tide will rise and tear me apart
Except it was my heart
right from the start

(If it were to go
No one would know
Buried in the snow
Maybe it'll grow
But it wont make it past forever)

I'll never see
Forever

Where will those happy days go
When the sun starts to weep
Where will the coming days go
When I go to sleep

What happens when I let go
Of everything I see
Where do all memories go if
tomorrow I'll never be

I'll love life with the memories of livin it

I'll never leave a mark except my footsteps in the sand
Never follow them
You'll see me walk them again
In my search for the where the pain ends
In my search for the oceans end

I'm picking up the pieces of my soul
They're like broken glass I step on
The bleeding's out of control

Sticks and stones will break my bones
But words will always kill me
And I'm still me
Still regretting every day
My sadness always stays

What's left of me
A rowboat in the sea
Where I left a apology
To you and me
A boy in who climbed a tree
And a happy man at sea
What's left of me

Oh, the tales i tell you wont believe
Cause theyll never be told
