drifting through this ambigous sea
needing an anchor to hold onto me
I'm floating aimlessly, no meaning, no life
struggling with this unrelenting strife.

I choke on the salty, coroded waves
the sun burns my soul with its scorching rays
the sand tears me open, raw and bleeding
scratching the wanting, scraping the needing

Come to me, hold me, my ship so strong
I've been aching for serenity much too long
be my anchor, my mooring, never let go
I need you to help me regain some control.

I make myself numb to avoid more pain
and observe my condition, with nothing to gain.
everything's hopeless... everything's muddled
and the sea taunts me silently, always so subtle.

why don't I float?  why can't I drown?
I'm left here with silence, no screaming, no sound
torment surrounds me, and I'll never escape
give me a reason, a meaning, a shape

Come to me, hold me, my ship so strong
I've been aching for serenity much too long
be my anchor, my mooring, never let go
I need you to help me regain some control.

promises ventured, never gained
I'm left with grinding, rasping pain
save me! take me!  I'll always be yours
lift me out before I reach death's shore.

Come to me, hold me, my ship so strong
I've been aching for serenity much too long
be my anchor, my mooring, never let go
I need you to help me regain some control.
