Dangerous Waters Songtext
von Adestria

These things that weigh you down
Don′t let them get the best of you because
We all, we all, we all have burdens to bear

In the beginning it was only he would drink
Until she told him she was going to leave
Yet she forgave him every time
Refused to judge him for his crime

Just run away, run away from those that hold you down
The longer you tread these waters, the more likely you will drown
So find a way, find a way to shed these burdens that you've kept
You can′t expect to move on (You can't expect to move on)
Until you take the first step


Time only made things worse
The violence more commonly occurred
Long sleeves in 100 degrees
Glasses hide the eyes she doesn't want to be seen
Like brush strokes up her wrist
Scars paint the tale of when she tried to leave it all behind
She had no more to give
Every night spent with him was another night she might not survive
She had to go
She realized he wasn′t worth the bruises and black eyes
She packed her bags and took her keys from the drawer
As he walked through the front door

Just run away, run away from those that hold you down
The longer you tread these waters, the more likely you will drown
So find a way, find a way to shed these burdens that you′ve kept
You can't expect to move on (You can′t expect to move on)
Until you take the first step

He saw her bags were packed when he came home
He rushed at her, she ran for the phone
He lost his mind, she feared for her life
He reached for her arm and she reached for a knife

Just run away, run away from those that hold you down
The longer you tread these waters, the more likely you will drown
So find a way, find a way to shed these burdens that you've kept
You can′t expect to move on (You can't expect to move on)
Until you take the first step

We all, we all, we all have burdens to bear
We all, we all, we all have burdens
