I find myself drowning in a sea of broken glass and shattered dreams
The waves they crash with a foam of ash
I am stuck in the riptide of you, starry-eyed
You took the breath from my lungs with only a look
But now the water rushes in leaving me to endure
What the rocks have destroyed- what I could not avoid
The truth is gone and free and too uncouth
The one wave that left me like a hit-and-run
And I want to hope all the pain I felt was in vain
I shouldn’t have to be ready to hold myself steady
When I find myself drowning in a sea of broken glass and shattered dreams
Drowning in a sea of you and me
Composed as I was thousand of miles away from an ocean.
