Drowning

Waded out to the sea, dug my feet as deep as could be.
Oh, why’d I go so far? Now I can’t even see the shore.
Grasping at something you’ve lost, washed away a lifetime ago.
Head to that horizon, it all seems so close. Innocence is slippery at most.
I wonder if drowning ever feels good. Do you visit the if and the should?
Do you become all the things that you could, if you had gone all the way?
Love is lying in bed regretting every word wasn’t said.
Love is lying on a table; some things we aren’t able to keep.
I wonder if drowning ever feels good. Do you visit the if and the should?
Do you become all the things that you could, if you had gone all the way?
Take me down. Take me down. Take me down, down to the bottom to see.
Washed up onto silence and dreams. This loss is as thick as it seems,
But your eyes are like hours and all I can see is the time that is still meant to be.
I wonder if drowning ever feels good. Do we visit the if and the should?
Do we become all the things that you could, if we had gone all the way?
Take me down. Take me down. Take me down, down to the bottom to see.

Walking Mountain

You’re standing in front of the fire, but to walk through is too much pain.
Bold hands burn so you refrain.
You were a walking mountain, shaking snow as you’d go,
But you lose your way when the cold winds blow.
Oh, it feels like home.
Home. Giving up, going it alone.
You see the light in the tunnel, a way to escape the jail, but the iron bars of fear prevail.
You found your feet were suited to holding you in place. Don’t make stillness your disgrace.
Oh, I know it feels like home.
Home. Giving up, going it alone.
There’s bad and there’s worse. You’re forgetting which came first.
What do you dream of when the walls of awake are at bay? Do you ever break away?
Oh, I know it feels like home.
Home. Giving up, going it alone.
