The Only Key

I can see you standing on the deck
As the rain comes pouring down
I see you losing balance
There's no lifeline around
An angry sky above you and an angry sea below
You're so close to the edge of darkness and destruction
You don't know

But there's a lighthouse in the distance
Though it's very far behind you
The light you need for guidance
Can't be seen, it can't remind you
There's a safe harbor that's near you
You're blinded you can't see
You're trapped in chains invisible to us
You hold the only key
The only key

You didn't see the storm clouds coming
You felt sheltered in the bay
You didn't notice all you'd worked for
Was starting to slip away
The crystal glass you sipped from
Blocked what was coming from your view
All we can do is stand and watch
Because change is up to you.

I stand by as piece by piece it steals your soul
You can't see that you're no longer in control
I'll be here the moment that you finally do
Don't you know that I will always stand by you

There's a lighthouse in the harbor
But it's very far behind you
The light you need for guidance
Can't be seen, it can't remind you
There's a safe harbor that's near you
You're blinded you can't see
You're trapped in chains invisible to us
You hold the only key
The only key
