What Did It Take

See the ocean road in her eyes
Watch the horizon swallow the tide
Sunlight shines on what's left exposed
Reveal what was buried in the sand
She stands dry as the waters rise
Watch the ocean swallow the sky
They say it's safer on the other side
But now I see through your teeth you lie

Through your teeth you lied
Try to walk a mile inside these shoes
Your hourglass falls, this time we'll lose
Wade out into the shifting tides
The time has come your debt is due

Give it time, 'cause I hope for the best
Build it right 'cause I'll only second guess
Drown the way I feel
At this height the wave will still test us
I'm facing the wave and I'm facing the wave
I'm facing the wave and I brace for the crash

Wash away every part of you
Try to walk a mile inside these shoes
Your hourglass falls, this time you'll lose
Wade out into the shifting tides
The time has come, your debt is due

Feel the crash, you disappear
Don't let it fuel your fear
What did it take to leave me here
Forget the past, what's done is done
Under the flood I ignore your words
You point your blame I've heard it all
What did it take to be sincere

Try to walk a mile inside these shoes
Your hourglass falls, this time you'll lose
Wade out into the shifting tides
This time has come your debt is due
Your debt is due
