Into the Deep End

Shallow mountains are beneath me
Shadow valleys weigh me down, baby
Lift me up from gravity's waterfalls
Hear me out when I give you my calls 

I’m falling, spiraling and soaring
In the deep end, in the deep end 
I’m free-falling, colliding and exploring
Into the deep end, the deep end
…Deep...end…

You are unforgotten in my memories
You are the butterfly in my ribcage
Guilt overflows in me and you
Tragedy in reverse says It’s true
Shadows…mere reflections…
Gave me slight rejections 
Mirror gives me flawless symmetry
Raindrops from bitter clouds set me free
Shadows…mere reflections…
Gave me slight rejections 
Tragedy in reverse says It’s true
Guilt overflows in me and you
You are the butterfly in my ribcage
You are unforgotten in my memories

Release me 
I’m in sheer captivity 
Revive me 
Be with me possibly

I’m falling, spiraling and soaring
In the deep end, in the deep end 
I’m free-falling, colliding and exploring
Into the deep end, the deep end
Shallow mountains are beneath me
Shadow valleys weigh me down, baby

This heart, alone, is beating for a quick mend
Skipping stones, alone, in the deep, dark end
Take me to the park
I’m your singing lark 
The. End.
