Ocean-Vapor

And then
I was rushing
Towards the edge of
The cliff
Ready to jump
Ready to make it look like
An accident
I tried to drown my sorrows
But they learned how to swim
I tried to leave them on a beach
But they found their way back in
I tried to kick 'em
Tried to lick 'em
Tried to trick 'em into wasting away
But they’re floating my way
Bracing for the crash
But it’s water, I don’t last
Giving up the ground, I have found
I am vapor
I am vapor
I am vapor
I am vapor
I remember how I didn’t want to calm the wind
Wanted it to blow around
Till it blew away
All the things not tied down
Oh how you harnessed me
How you felt like the captain to my sea
Riding over me
Riding endlessly
Till you found the land
How you needed me
Bracing for the crash
But it’s water, I don’t last
Waiting in the air
Will I ever get there?
Giving up the ground, I have found
I am vapor
My waves were licking at the shore
Sunshine was glittering upon my ebb and flow
Your desert eyes couldn’t see my miles
Couldn’t see my depths below
I tried to drown my sorrows
But they learned how to swim
I tried to leave them on a beach
But they found their way back in
And then I was rushing
And then I was rushing
And then I was rushing
Towards the edge of the cliff
Bracing for the crash
But it’s water, I don’t last
Waiting in the air
Will I ever get there?
Bracing for the crash
But it’s water, I don’t last
Giving up the ground, I have found
I am vapor
