So We Remain

And so you're reeling
>From the fatal shot
Your heart was so alive
And then it stopped

So we remain

You see the casualties
They're all around
You're one of them
But you can't come down

So we remain
Running on hope and borrowed time
Look for sand to draw the line

You know what ails you
Only time can cure
You're silent screams
Can not be heard

So we remain
It's not in vein

Running on hope and borrowed time
Look for sand to draw the line
When the silence is deafening
Grasp at straws to ease the sting

You said that moment
When your heart had stopped
The hands of time stood still
And then you dropped

So we remain
It's not in vein

Running on hope and borrowed time
Look for sand to draw the line
When the silence is deafening
Grasp at straws to ease the sting
Though the details are like razor blades
In spite of all we remain
