Lyrics On the Surface - Ryan Amador

On The Surface
On the surface
The new life is the same
With different meaning
And dried up new terrain
And I can tell you
That I've been doing just fine, but I'd be lyin'
We're drawing circles
Our shits still on the peak
Jumping' hurdles
But you're still leaving me
And I can do it without you, but I can't say what I'd be going through
Cause the day you left was the last one I could know
But the body rises from its ashes in the snow
And to all of these survivors, who've lasted through the year
I ask you now to help me strip away unwanted fears
And give me strength to stand this
And courage to obey
Empower me with wisdom that can take away my pain
Cause you know that I'm out here asleep
And you held the only love to awaken me
There's no need to cry out I'm too weak, tired, and lonely
On the surface
I can make it seem like I'm A-OK but I can't get better with you watching me
I know you're looking closely
Like a spy with a broken eye
Just remember I'm trying to find a better topic than the lack of you and I
And I can't remember the way you're skin felt touching me
Or your moody temper, that had me pleading down at your knees
Or the stories you would tell to a crowd so eagerly
I wish they still could be apart of me
And I know in my heart there's a piece missing I think
But did you lose it when you dove in and started sinking
To all of these survivors, who've lasted through the year
I ask you now to help me strip away unwanted fears oh
And give me strength to stand this
And courage to obey
Empower me with wisdom that can take away my pain
Cause you know that I'm out here asleep
And you held the only love to awaken me
There's no need to cry out I'm too weak and tired
Oh there's no need to cry cause I'm too weak, tired, and lonely
