High tide is drawing me in
Dear Lord I am wrapping
My wrist around your heels
I am shivering from the late noon day sun
Hanging on for dear life
My body is quiveringly recovering
Recovering from an ocean of mistrust
and it isn’t easy
I am drained
from all of the wrong decisions
I need stability
Lethargy is setting in
and the eyelids getting heavy
I’m struggling to a state of no return
All the weaknesses that I must unlearn
I am going from something
To going broke
Return me to my full status
Just remind me again when all goes well
About whose stake it is
Remind me again for whose sake it is
Why do you leave me to my own device
You thought me obedience is better then sacrifice
Rolling the dice
I need to win just one more time
I need to win
Can't afford to lose
Too much drenched in my blues
Tired of a cycle that goes on and on
I won't stop believing
I will hold on to that feeling.
Yearning for you, dear, now and forever more
Earthquakes you create in my peaceful dreams
Awaken me quiveringly some nights, creating
Ripples on the streams of my thoughts
Never silent, my sweet, your heartbeats, that is
I hear them...I hear them nice and loud
Near or far. I think of you, ever so often. Oh, how...
Glowing embers of you burn inside my brain
