Tepid waves

Of trepidation covering me

As if to provide

A moment of clarity.

What lies ahead

Is it another unfolding travesty again?

I'm searching for substance

But I don't even fit into my own skin.

You spoke of a world full of purpose

As I choked down every single lie

'til I sank all the way to the bottom

With a heavy heart like an anchor deep inside.

And it's dragging me down

Down

Down

Down.

You state your case

But the words fall like broken mirrors

And shifting the blame

Won't provide another place to hide.

What lies ahead

Is it another misguided, sad, and failed attempt?

I'm searching for anything

But I haven't even seen the sun in days.

You spoke of a world full of purpose

As I choked down every single lie

'til I sank all the way to the bottom

With a heavy heart like an anchor deep inside.

You spoke of a world full of purpose

As I choked down every single lie

'til I sank all the way to the bottom

With a heavy heart like an anchor deep inside.

And it's dragging me down

Down

Down

Down.
