Just let go
I don’t want you to see me
Drift off into my descent
And I think back
When we paid our way
On this sinking ship
With heavy words and regrets
I think “Please run away
Please leave me be
I don’t want to see you sink down with me
Again”
And we’re sinking
But I can’t help thinking
Why can’t we
Learn to float on?
It’s because I’m an anchor
Holding you down
With my heavy words
And your lightest heart
With heavy hearts
And cages like anchors
Nothing escapes us
Not even our breath
This is a ship wreck
