Anchor

I have tried to back down
In the eyes of strangers they will
Know my all
That my pride comes after a fall, a fall
So you begin to ask
The questions to end questioning
Why, the art is growing
Silent
It’s a long a way to the anchor
Fathoms under water
You are running out of breath to carry
Your lungs are not ready
It’s not enough to save me
And you don’t have the
Strength of many
I denied, I smiled
I swallowed like a willing child
I saw you guessed but you could
Never save a sinking shipwreck
Don’t be upset, it’s just you
Haven’t worked it out yet
There’s still time just don’t be blameful
If you don’t have mine
It’s a long a way to the anchor
Fathoms under water
You are running out of tricks
To tempt me
Even if you move me
I’d still be a greedy little thing
To have around and watch
You drowning
Come home to me
I won’t be grateful
But I will not leave your side
And I’ll be the anchor
You have always known it’s me
So now you’ve won
Just let the water fill your lungs
I’ll watch and pray 'cause everybody
Has to die someday
