[Verse 1]
Bm
If I'm a desert,

My face is the wind
Bm
I know where I'm going

And I know where I've been
A
You're the horizon and the wide open space
A
And I surround you caressing your face

Bm
There's not a limit to the things that I'd do
Bm
I'd give you stars but the stars wouldn't do
A
You're like the lava burning buried below
A
An eruption but too early to show

[Chorus]
Bm
We are islands
Bm
Hear our sirens
      A
And so we wait... (wait, down, put it right in front of me)
A
We wait... (wait, down, put it right in front of me)
            Bm
'Cause when pressure heightens
Bm
Our coal makes diamonds
      A
And so we wait... (wait, down, in front of me)
A
We wait... (wait, down, wait, down)

[Interlude]

(repeat)

[Verse 2]
Bm
The flood comes shifting the soil
Bm
Our blood runs thicker than oil
A
It's like erosion cutting straight to the core
A
No human nature ever felt this before
Bm
And we become an unbreakable vow
Bm                               A
I wanna hold you up, higher than most
A
Because it feels like flying out

[Chorus]
Bm
We are islands
Bm
Hear our sirens
      A
And so we wait... (wait, down, put it right in front of me)
A
We wait... (wait, down, put it right in front of me)
            Bm
'Cause when pressure heightens
Bm
Our coal makes diamonds
      A
And so we wait... (wait, down, in front of me)
A
We wait... (wait, down, wait, down)

(Wait, down, in front of me)
