(lyrics)

Stranded here in a world you fear
You 're on your own
Sacred heart now come apart
Where is your home
In a world so cold
In a daydream now grown old

Stranded here in this new year
What have you done
Something unmistakable
Are you having fun
Oh but do come in
Please confess your sin

This is not how it was supposed to be
This is not how they will remember me
This is not how it was supposed to be

Solid ground beneath your feet
And heaven above
Voices are
Speaking of
A place you know
Now do you want to go
Do you want to go

Stranded here what's left to fear
Nothing at all
Slowly you begin to see
What broke your fall
Just a changing guard
How can it be when you have come this far

This is not how it was supposed to be
This is not how they will remember me
This is not how it was supposed to be
This is not how they will remember me
They will remember me
