609 - Nevada Rose

I'll take everything down

That stands before me and my walk

Like a sinking ship

That was never anchored

I will drown

I'm sinking down unanchored

We'd rather live than waste our time

When we know it won't matter

So much effort has been lost

I haven't given up

I haven't given up completely

It's just that words have escaped me

We'd rather live than waste our time

These tides have grown so strong

These waves have risen to the point

Where I'm drowning

I won't allow this current

To take me down

These tides have grown so strong

These waves have risen to the point

Where I'm drowning

I won't allow this current

To take me down

I'll never forget where

I've been because

It's brought me

To where I need to be

And shows me where to go

Now that I know what the bottom

Feels like I can finally

Climb my way back to the top

I won't stop I will never

I'll never stop

Clawing my way out of here

We'd rather live than waste our time

When we know it won't matter

So much effort has been lost

I haven't given up

I haven't given up completely

It's just that words have escaped me

We'd rather live than waste our time
