Drift

Head in hands

My heart on the floor

Discarded and trodden down into the carpet

I've been here before

Cold hands in the darkness

Reaching out

Pulling me under

Do you remember what you said to me?

When I was stood at the edge of my grave

You gave me back my sense of self

And told me that it would all be okay

The rain still makes me think of you

And how happy you could be

Without me asking you to stop me drowning

I don't want to drag you under

I miss what we used to have some days

I wish that we could go back

To that first discovery

Of just what you meant to me

I'll carry the memory

(I might just drift away)

And I love you

And sometimes I hate myself for it

And I know

Sometimes you hate me too

I'm like an anchor around your ankle

Keeping you tied down to the earth

So cut me loose

Take flight without me

Let me drift away

Head in my hands

My heart is on the floor

Discarded, cast out

Oh god, I've been here before

I miss what we used to have some days

I wish that we could go back

To that first discovery

Of just what you meant to me

I'll carry that memory

Don't let me drift away

(I've been here before)

I'm drifting away
