Anodyne Sea Lyrics

None of this matters
None of these words
Common and silent
We will die in this world

We?ve only spoken
To those who agree
And without them we've fallen
On deaf ears

Stand on conviction
And you will walk alone

For once I have stood (I have stood)
No one will know
But alone I was born
And alone we must go

In my convictions
I?ve found my own grave
But amongst the dead
We all fade away

Yet solitude is better than a life
Not worthy of reaction

There is nothing to lose (nothing)
So we stand alone or join those
Who follow in misery

In my convictions
I?ve found my own grave
But amongst the dead
We all fade away

In my convictions
I?ve found my own grave
But amongst the dead
We all fade away
Fade away

Stand on conviction
And you?ll walk alone

A voice is only a noise
Without someone to hear
And without a crowd to feed
That noise grows silent

For once I have stood
No one will know
But alone I was born
And alone we must go

Fading back into an anodyne sea
To drown with all who've gone before me

We must go

In my convictions
I?ve found my own grave
But amongst the dead
We all fade away

In my convictions
I?ve found my own grave
But amongst the dead
We all fade away

Stand on conviction
And you?ll walk alone

Fading back into an anodyne sea
To drown with all who've gone before me
Fading back... fading
Fading back into an anodyne sea
Fading back... fading
Fading back... fading away
