Now that we're knee deep side by side
The storm clouds are circling above us
As we struggle against the tide
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
Oh father, why have they forsaken me?
You warned me that they would
Because it's passing down the bloodline
It's spoken and misunderstood
We're losing light
And strength of will
The darkened depths beckoning still
Then we hold on against the tide
Another storm you're left to fight alone
Remember son, you're reaping what you've sown
Under the waves we're sinking like a stone
I'm sorry son, you're reaping what you've sown
[X2]
You're reaping what you've sown
[X4]
We're slowly losing ground
And hope is harder to maintain
We know the prayers we prayed
Feel lost like tears in the rain
The water is pulling down
It's eclipsing the sun
The ending that we knew would come
Has finally begun
You're reaping what you've sown
It's finally begun
You're reaping what you've sown
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
This sorrow weighs down on my shoulders
This fear is getting harder to hide
You'll leave me alone in this darkness
Left to hold out
Against the tide
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 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 Oh father, why have they forsaken me? You warned me that they would Because it's passing down the bloodline It's spoken and misunderstood We're losing light And strength of will The darkened depths beckoning still Then we hold on against the tide Another storm you're left to fight alone Remember son, you're reaping what you've sown Under the waves we're sinking like a stone I'm sorry son, you're reaping what you've sown [X2] You're reaping what you've sown [X4] We're slowly losing ground And hope is harder to maintain We know the prayers we prayed Feel lost like tears in the rain The water is pulling down It's eclipsing the sun The ending that we knew would come Has finally begun You're reaping what you've sown It's finally begun You're reaping what you've sown 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 This sorrow weighs down on my shoulders This fear is getting harder to hide You'll leave me alone in this darkness Left to hold out Against the tide Explain Request ×
