i've put myself through enough
chasing happiness
this time i'll let it come to me
the tides have changed for good
i'm constantly put down for what i believe in
raised in a town that i can barely breathe in
i'm suffocating, i'm suffocated
but i have faith in us
lately, i've been losing my footing while others just seem rooted
"i won't let myself make the same mistakes that you did"
i'm separating myself from each and every fucking one of you
one step at a time
dead or alive
i have faith in us

i’m tired of keeping to myself with things that need to be said,
caught up in my own thoughts, losing my voice, holding my breath
and through it all, the fires of my heart stay lit,
setting flames to our “home” and everything in it
do you know what you’re running from?
it’s taken four long years to overcome.
the wine-dark tides from the setting sun
loosen me like saltwater,
speak in signs with your broken hands
keep your pulse beneath the wrinkles,
keep your heart beneath the sand
i've orchestrated everything so blindly until now,
i've been under currents looking down,
anchored to the ground.
where is your god now?
he left you swimming at the bottom of the sea
where is your god now?
he’s stolen everything
the rope around my feet: unbound
unbound, dilute and
drown

you are my reason to change,
the iron running through my sea blue veins
i'm always the one
to overreact
to bring us back
we shed our summer skin, and make love with the sea
mail your friends your chains, as proof that you're free.
if the sky is the limit, i'm moving to the sun
i'm going home, overwhelmed and outdone

waking up under foreign sheets,
forgetting who i am and who i used to be
(this isn't new to me)
i sold my soul for drugs.
and got a bag of sunshine
i dropped some on your tongue,
and watched the ocean drip from mine
this feels like a life time
this feels like the right time to move forward
to get back on my feet again, and off my knees
i keep my head up, i hang my head up
i've spent too much time sitting alone in empty parking lots
waiting for someone to reach out to me
i'm all alone here, i've been alone here
but you're my reminder to breathe
it's weeks like these that make it seem
like the last few months never happened
(but they happened)
i was only out long enough to get thrown back in
someday i'll be something
someday i'll be unheard of
hang your head up
