Stranded In The Balcony

Into the storm I reached and disarmed

Before it could reach me

To prepare as if to flip down

The light switch to see

Securing the gaps in the sky

Unknowing that our own

Is sure to shatter

As the world blisters below

It was the greatest mistake

Though we didn't know it

Tearing the bolts from the sky

Towering above our horizon

Now our city is dark and dry

These defenses are strong

Yet unaware that revenge doesn't heal

And in the end, who strikes last

Is simply as powerless as the first

It was the greatest mistake

Though we didn't know it

Tearing the bolts from the sky

Towering above our horizon

Now our city is dark and dry

Now we must wait

Until our wounds have healed

I didn’t mean for it to be this way

A symphony without arms and

A theater empty while you're

Stranded in the balcony

Securing the gaps in the sky

Unknowing that our own is sure to shatter

As the world blisters below

It was the greatest mistake

Though we didn't know it

Tearing bolts from the sky

Towering above our horizon

Now our city is dark and dry

Now we must wait

Until our wounds have healed

Removing the storms

Before they could fall

Now it's just a matter of time

Before these acts will ruin us all

Now it's just a matter of time
