Adrift

Hold them back

Emotions I must suppress

Because I can't find the words

to express my loneliness

Escape plans consisted of dropping all and heading west…

Never made it that far at all…

I built my castle out of sand

(Begging for disaster)

I built my home on an island

With every crashing wave

(It's eroding faster)

Were all just castaways

(My headspace is too big a sea)

Im adrift in my head

(So I never leave this frame of mind)

I thought all I ever did was try my best

I guess I was mistaken

Life's an onslaught of waves

I can barely make it above a crest

In this murky depth, left to drown

I have found

Produced from underwater

no one hears my sound

But I always seem to get my head above this liquid ground

Long enough for just a breath

To self preserve or prolong death?

I only show progression

In digression

I've learned my lesson

What failure comes next?

I built my castle out of sand

(Begging for disaster)

I built my home on an island

With every crashing wave

(It's eroding faster)

Were all just castaways

(My headspace is too big a sea)

Im adrift in my head

(So I never leave this frame of mind)

Start the digging

(Resentment, I must bury it)

Deep with in the mind

(But I’m digging in sand)

Had the best intentions

When it came to good moods

(I could barely stay above the tide)

But you had me all figured out

I built my castle out of sand

(Begging for disaster)

I built my home on an island

With every crashing wave

(It's eroding faster)

Were all just castaways

(My headspace is too big a sea)

Im adrift in my head

(So I never leave this frame of mind)

Following insincere promises, in the dark

I never felt more alone

Wondering how busy you must be

Not to pick up the phone

But you know I'd drop everything for you

I built my castle out of sand

(Begging for disaster)

I built my home on an island

With every crashing wave

(It's eroding faster)

Were all just castaways

(My headspace is too big a sea)

Im adrift in my head

(So I never leave this frame of mind)

I’m lost,

I’m adrift in my head

(I’m lost)

Clinging to the words that you said

I’m lost,

I’m adrift in my head

(I’m lost)

Clinging to the words that you said

I’m lost,

I’m adrift in my head

(I’m lost)

Clinging to the words that you said

(I’m lost)

Clinging to the words that you said

Clinging to the words that you said

I hatched and fell straight from the nest

Will I die or come around

Can I fly

Before I hit the ground
