Lyrics
:
Oh I have waited for you In the crossfire of isolation This tension will find release Sweatstain, confusion I�m black, get white eyes at night Where angels and men Still fear to tread And no-one�s ever holding back Stood like a raft in the wind There is a sea crashing over me There is a rock That will it�s ground The rock, the rock, the rock Will never let you down The rock will never stumble Tumble to the ground The rock, the rock, the rock Will never let you down The rock will never stumble Tumble to the ground I know you�re scared and lonely I see the streets are closing in on you This 21st century world Is racing like a ball of confusion You don�t know who to run from Or who to turn away from There�s nothing left for you tonight You don�t know if you should laugh or cry There is a sea crashing over me There is a sea Turning on me The rock, the rock, the rock Will never let you down The rock will never stumble Tumble to the ground The rock, the rock, the rock Will never let you down The rock will never tumble Stumble to the groun
