[Verse 1: Ryan Miller & Adam Gardner/Gardner]
Can you remember what the future held?
A little candy ring and a mystic ocean's shell
But they were anesthetized and slowly washed away
Left all the poison in the sands in which I played

[Chorus: Miller/Miller & Gardner]
I don't mind falling down and scraping up my knees
Scars and stitches always fade and only strengthen me
With my eyes as wide as pearls my only centerpiece
Is taken like the dead man's urn and tossed into the sea

[Verse 2: Miller & Gardner/Gardner/Miller]
Write me a letter
But dot your I's
And cross your T's
Nothing was everything to me
Under the monster's claws and in between his teeth
Was the shadow and a silhouette of what I'd thought I'd be

[Chorus (Modified): Miller/Miller & Gardner]
I don't mind falling down and scraping up my knees
Scars and stitches always fade and only strengthen me
With my eyes as wide as pearls my only centerpiece
Is taken like the dead man's urn and tossed into the sea
And it's floating on the ocean, floating oh into the sea
