Powerless

Flashing floods, stuck in the mud
I was off the grid in all the ruts
Still felt so close from far away
Sun went down, lights went out
We built a fire, so strong now
And there's no words for what I want to say
Lay me down here to sleep
To the sound of defeat
When it comes to us we're powerless
Powerless
Violent wind, blew down the door
Did me in and I prayed for more
All the damage done and I don't wanna change
No way
Lay me down here to sleep
To the sound of defeat
When it comes to us we're powerless
Powerless
One friend said
" Nothing's really set in stone
Another way of holding on
Find a way to let it go "
I don't remember what you said
But I remember what you meant
I remember how it felt
How it felt to loose control
Powerless
Powerless
Powerless
