Newborn Coastline

Rise up from the ground
the spoils of war
they'll be no more
lay your armor down
won't keep you warm
beneath the storm
the truth is all around
she smiles at you
you can't break through
lay your body down
there'll be no more
they'll be no more

maybe she'll get better
maybe she'll get better soon
I'm stuck on the sidelines
the wreckage of my life
carried along
the newborn coastline

to wake up and see what I've done
is she still breathing
hoping there's still a chance for some
it's going going gone

lighting touches down
to light your way
to light your door
frozen by the sound
the cannons burst
a child goes first
dancing on a cloud
she smiles at me
then shifts to heat
fading from us now
there'll be no more
they'll be no more

maybe she'll get better
maybe she'll get better soon
I'm stuck on the sidelines
the wreckage of my life
scattered along
the newborn coastline

Chorus
