Anchors

Will this clarity be the death of me?
Comprehension of the shame that I’m reaping
Another calling a different perception
Oh god am I losing control?

This is more than just a shiver down the back of my neck
I can’t go back I can’t go back
The lies we told the time we’ve stolen
Now what is left of me?

I remember when the trees were giants
And we could fly as high as the planes above
Living the plot of every happy ending
Now what is left for me?

This is more than just a shiver down the back of my neck
I can’t go back I can’t go back
The lies we told the time we’ve stolen
Now what is left of me?

I need an anchor just to keep me grounded
To tie me down to who I used to be
To tie me down to who I used to be

The future always seemed so far away
Am I still running from the searchlights that haunt me?
If I gave up my pride just for a day
Could I touch another face or speak another name?

This is more than just a shiver down the back of my neck
I can’t go back I can’t go back
The lies we told the time we’ve stolen
Now what is left of me?

I need an anchor just to keep me grounded
