lyrics

Sort my emotions from the oceans of oblivion.
Dig deep they sneer, but I fear I may not return here
And once I dive the night is alive and around me
As the lighthouse beam fades from my site,
hovering atop the surface, I leave everything behind.

What is it really that I even have left to leave behind,
Start thinking we're too far gone and sinking like a stone.
Retreat this fleet of one, I'm alone, on my own and out of control.
Drifting, sinking, drowning, I ain't ever coming home.

What is it about my time here
That I can't seem to steer clear of conflict and pain,
With nothing to gain but experience.
Live and learn and concern yourself with meaning,
What are we living for, shouldn't be a question anymore.

How I wish to be swallowed up by a big old fish,
take me far from this place I'm in.
Spit me up on a shore and from here I'll explore
this world furthermore.

In a certain way, I can only convey in a poem;
wild and free, but alone and on my own,
I am sinking like a stone, I am sinking like a stone.
