I left
my name in the river
Where the water pulls me down
I've been floating through the silence With no solid ground
Every step is borrowed Every breath feels used
The sky's falling slowly In shades of blue
And I don't know if I'm running Or just standing still
The current knows my secrets But never will
I'm floating,
floating
Through an ocean
The white blue turns dark
Every time I try
I'm calling,
calling But the sound is gone
The river keeps on pulling me along
There's a light on the horizon But it flickers when I stare
All these words I never said Are heavy in the air
My hands are cold and shaking From holding on too long
I build a home in the echo Of a half-forgotten song
If I let go of the shoreline Will I finally breathe?
Or will the dark water
Make a ghost of me?
I'm floating,
floating Through an ocean
The white blue turns
dark
Every time I try I'm calling,
calling
But the sound is gone The river keeps on pulling me along
Me along
I'm floating,
floating
Dark water, don't be gentle
I'm already broken in
If I sink into the silence
Let it end where I begin
I'm floating,
floating
No way back tonight The ocean's breathing
Blue and white I'm falling,
falling But it
feels like home The river keeps on
pulling me along
I'm floating, floating In the river
I'm floating, floating I let go
In the dark blue ocean I dissolve
