Tides


Tide rolls in you're sinking in

These words you say you're not swimming in

You're breathing out, you're breathing in, today

All these words are complicated 

You're saying goodbye before your hated

Where will you go, you go today

Your mind takes you far away

Going places you'll never say

All thats left inside of you

Is something greater than me or you

But where will this prize ever lead

Will it finally lead back to me

The tide rolls in 

And you're sinking in
