And the picture painted
Never fades away
And the canvas tarnished
Its better taken down
Did it fall on deaf ears
Were you listening 
Did I neglect to tell you 

That we should change into something
Seems as though you meant it
When you almost drowned
And you hindered all the progress
While living in denial
Seems as though you meant it 
When you almost drowned

When you test my resolve
Did you stop to think
For once what you were doing
Its better taken down
The damage you are causing
Was almost far too deep
But the past lies behind us

But we should change into something
Seems as though you meant it
When you almost drowned
And you hindered all the progress
While living in denial
Seems as though you meant it 
When you almost drowned

So I'll just stand here
But I won't wait for long
With perseverance
Don't hold out too long

Take a step back 'cause it's all you get
All you get 
Seems as though you meant it
When you almost drowned
