Where do you draw the line between want and need?
I can feel you in these words; you can see it in my trembling knees.  
Broken when you found me, look where i have come.
i can almost stop the trembling and get these wobbly legs to run.

I'm at a full sprint now, into the safety of your warmth.
Let me sink in these arms, a drowning of a satisfied corpse.  
As i fall to the bottom of your depths, i'm looking up at the surface.
The bubbles rise and i begin to grasp what i see in the calmness of  
your baby blue eyes.

My body is drifting, meeting your coral Reefs now.  
Is this the feeling? i believe, i am greeting peace now.  
I've decided you are the one i would like to keep, somehow.
Broken when you found me, look where i have come.

You are the ocean in which i can never outrun.
