Meadows - The Embrace lyrics

Just like the wind
When it meets with the wave
The ocean opens up‚ and
The violence is beneath
She was tossed in the currents
Her hope swept away‚ by the undertow of
Lies that she had once believed
And this disease‚ into her blood it seeps
It pulled her further, further, into the deep

The heart breaks‚ and it finally
Oh it finally takes it's toll
Finding strength isn’t easy
It's not easy for the tortured soul
The sirens ring so loud
Yet all that could be heard were
The cries of a war-torn
Mother for a son who wanted
Nothing to do with her
They rushed her to the room
The lights and faces dim
The only thing keeping her here
Now‚ are thoughts of him

And this disease, into her blood it seeps
Oh it pulled her further, further
Into the deep

So she wait's, and he finally
Oh he finally answers their calls
He hesitates, to open up
To even open that door at all

"But there's a hand reaching out for me
Am I worth it, this rescuing?
Am I worth all of this pain?
I’ve been lost, I feel so ashamed"

The IV's hanging from her wrists
She's stretching out her arms
The tears start streaming down her cheeks
Her boy has finally returned
But she still sees their father in his face
As the memories rush back
Her heart begins to race

"I see your father in your eyes
The way they always tend to meet mine
I notice how they wander
But they always held their shine
Oh how his smile's just like yours
So tender and so kind
It always calmed my shakey knees
His presence could calm the raging seas
Oh how I miss him everyday, but
You can always come back
It's never too late
I see the boy that we had raised
We both cried ourselves to sleep each night
After your father had passed away"
If there's breathe inside your lungs
Then you have hope that you can cling to
If your heart beats inside your chest
Then there's a home that you can run to
No matter the depths your
Deeds have brought you
No matter the distance that you run
God calls us still His sons and daughters
This is unrequited love
