The Waves Beneath

It's never too safe
You're always in crisis
And there's no one on the surface
Drowning in words or
Sinking in silence

The cycle keeps spinning around with no one winning
Uncertain unwilling
Belief in something more than us
I don't want to get stranded
Without a way to find balance
I hear your words but don't listen
Whether we're sinking or swimming

Graying days, tides changing
Words weary, sight blurring

The burden, the failure
To be alive and impatient
I'm blinded by temper
The ties that bind now severed

I drove too long to go nowhere
Then turned around to face despair
The waves are beneath me
I see the shore but keep drifting

Graying days, tides changing
Words weary, sight blurring

I've said this too many times
I don't want to lose sight here
We've got so far to go
And we only just got here

You should do what's right for you
And believe in your own words
We've got so far to go now
And we only just got here

I've said this too many times
I don't want to lose sight here
We've got so far to go
And we only just got here

You should do what's right for you
And believe in your own words
We've got so far to go now
And we only just got here
