The more i try
|
The more i feel i'm missing
|
The more i run
|
The more my feet keep slipping
|
The more i think
|
The more i tend to worry
|
The more i look
|
I see my thoughts before me
|
|
And i dream of a strand
|
As i struggle on the waves
|
And i see the end of a passing day
|
As i see the strand
|
In the corners of my mind
|
Windows offer the view
|
Of a coming day
|
|
The more i stretch
|
The more these walls confine me
|
The more i beg
|
The less it all seems likely
|
The more i mind
|
The matter that surrounds me
|
The more i find
|
My thoughts before me
|
|
Drifting on an open sea
|
Shipwrecked clinging to broken beams
|
Waters to my neck
|
I strain to catch my breath
|
Drifting in the boundaries
|
I've built up deep within me
|
Waters to my neck
|
I strain to catch my breath
|
I'm tired of treading again
|
I'm swimming to the strand
|
