100 roll 60
No engines through the rain
We waited for a light
But no one came
You talked about the ocean
A quiet little place
Coffee in the morning
Sunlight on her face
You said, “Just get me home, friend”
I swore it on my name
Now the tunnel’s falling
And no one came
The line went dead
The lights went low
They left us underneath
But I won’t let you go
No one came
No one came
So I held back the dark
And I called your name
Let the whole world turn away
Let the heavens hide in shame
I promised I would bring you home
Though no one came
Claws against the stone walls
Blood beneath our feet
Every breath was fading
Every heart missed beats
I heard you say, “It’s over”
But I could not do the same
Something woke inside me
When no one came
The numbers climbed
My body broke
The fire filled my veins
I gave it everything
To pull you from the grave
No one came
No one came
So I held back the dark
And I called your name
Let the whole world turn away
Let the heavens hide in shame
I promised I would bring you home
Though no one came
One hundred
One sixty
Two forty
Three—
Hold the field
Hold the line
Just one more breath
Just one more time
I can save them
I can save them
I can save—
No one came
No one came
Still I held back the dark
Still I called your name
Let the whole world turn away
I will carry all the blame
I thought I brought you back with me
Though no one came
Through the white
I saw your face
“We made it…”
No one came.
