lyrics

Boats sailing in the ocean
Floating far away from me

In the sky, up above, down below, by my feet, in the water
Fear’s swimmin’ laps around my soul
Waves are turnin’ me over
The darkness pulling me down
Life-vest caught around my neck and it’s chokin'

And why
Am I
Alone in the water
The end is drawing near

And why
Do I cry
Driftin' in the water
I don't know why I’m here

Fish and birds and hurtful words
The waves have dragged me through
All the places, all the people
Memories I once knew

And I don’t know why I don’t know how to fend off the doubting
Salty fears from floating by
Searching for someone’s shoulder
To stop me from breaking down
Life-vest caught around my neck and it’s chokin'

And I
Cannot fly
Trapped in the water
Drownin' in my fear

Because I'm
Barely alive
I can't drink this water
I might disappear

Floating there on the horizon there’s a boat
And I don’t know if I should go
But I start swimmin’
Swimmin’ in the sun towards the boat
In the water there lies hope

And I'll
Leave behind
All of my anchors
All of my fears

And I
Know I can fly
I'm dryin' off the water
Dryin' off my tears
