Swamp In the Sea
When your turn to fear us
Oh, how it descends
Just another day
To save these scars
How can I remedy
What’s way too far
It’s just a melody
So keep it strong
I just don’t know
Why everything has to go away
How do I stay
If there’s nothing more I can do
A rain ago
Too late to go
Dreary are the boats I sail
Lonely is the boat I am
Knocking, slamming into me
How can I worry, how can I be
Take a drive
Stay alive
They come fiercer in the night
Always knowing with running might
We can’t escape the flames now cast
We’re running from mistakes of past
Keep it simple
Stay nimble
Can you win the war
If you chase your own tail
Try not to overthink it
That’s the secret
