Down Silver Lake - Mainstay

Is anyone awake?

Anyone at all?

Siren song is calling me, it’s getting louder now

Compromise is here

I know it’s all a lie

I need to hear the melody of Your tune

So take me home but keep me feeling lonely

When everyone is around

You’re trying to show me how to hear Your song

Down here by the water

Far away from the lights I see that I can’t live two lives

Everywhere I go I carry with me

This ceiling that divides us

It’s coming in between

When conversation turns into a monologue

I need to just be silent here and listen for Your tune

Night time lends its ear to the sound of my disappointment

When the ideal fades I don’t want to complain

I just want to hear You sing
