Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Bring on your hunters, and let 'em bring their dogs
It's me that you wanted, I've been right here all along
Right here all along
[Verse 2]
You better bring your buckets, we've got some dreams to drain
And I'll be at the bottom, I've been right here waitin' so long
Just waitin' so long
[Verse 3]
Dreams to drain, put 'em in a cage
Unlock the pain, and I'll be here waitin'
You fell asleep with the key, all your walls mean nothin' to me
I know you'll come back to set us free
[Chorus]
Run, my dear son, until we get to the trees
And keep on goin' all the way, gotta get right down to the sea
Gotta get to the sea, my dear son, we've gotta get to the sea
[Verse 4]
And don't you touch the water, don't you barely breathe
And if you see yourself lookin' back at you, you're gonna have to leave
You're gonna have to leave, I don't want you to go, but you gotta leave
[Bridge]
Dreams to drain, put 'em in a cage
Unlock the pain and I'll be here waitin'
You fell asleep with the key, all your walls don't mean nothing to me
I know you'll come back, you're gonna set us free
[Chorus]
Don't want you to go, but you gotta leave
You always come to me, I'll give you what you need
Run, my dear son, we've gotta get to the sea
