Deep Water

I’m drifting in deep waters
Alone with my self doubting again
I try not to struggle this time
For I will weather the storm
I gotta remember
Don’t fight it
Even if I
Don’t like it
Somehow turn me around
No matter how far I drift
Deep waters won’t scare me tonight

  1. I can’t deny what I’ve become
    I’m just emotionally undone
    I can’t deny I can with someone else
    When I have tried to find the words
    To describe this sense absurd
    Try to resist my thoughts but I can’t lie

    All the muse in myself
    My desire I can’t hide
    No reason and I thought

    I can’t divide they’ll hide from me
    I don’t know who I’m meant to be
    I guess it’s just the person that I am
    Often I’ve felt that I don’t wade
    Into the gift of my mistake
    Again, again I’m wrong, and I confess

    All the muse in myself
    My desire I can’t hide
    No reason and I thought

    All the muse in myself
    My desire I can’t hide
    No reason and I thought

  2. We might kiss
    When we are alone
    When nobody’s watchin’
    We might take it home
    We might make out
    When nobody’s there
    It’s not that we’re scared
    It’s just that it’s delicate

    So why’d ya fill my sorrow
    With the words you’ve borrowed
    From the only place you’ve known
    Why’d ya sing hallelujah
    If it means nothin’ to ya
    Why’d ya sing with me at all?

    We might live
    Like never before
    When there’s nothin’ to give
    How can we ask for more?
    We might make love
    In some sacred place
    That look on your face
    Is delicate

    So why’d ya fill my sorrow
    With the words you’ve borrowed
    From the only place you’ve known
    Why’d ya sing hallelujah
    If it means nothin’ to ya
    Why’d ya sing with me at all?
