I cannot swim
But I can't seem to drown either
And no matter how hard I try
I can't seem to stop the dam from bursting

The fear and regret push and push
Against the wall of delicate skin
Until they ooze through the creepycracks

Like honey when you leave the top a little loose after making tea
But this is not water that you can drink
I try, but the viscosity disturbs and disgusts me
But the color is rich
Like a Valentine's Day rose

It chokes me
But I cannot stop drinking
It is in my throat and I can't breathe

I think that I am drowning

Then the dam will begin to rebuild itself
And just as I have caught my breath
Finally dry of the heavyscary water
I will hear the dam spring a leak

I will not run

I already know that I cannot swim

But I am not afraid
Because no matter how much water I drink
And no matter how hard I try to sink
My riverpain will not pull me down

Alas, I cannot drown.

I thought today it be easier,
But the pain is there each day.
Like a lost soul I wonder about-
For my half that's gone away.

Just end this pain of mine my love,
And help me to believe-
That you're gone and have moved on-
At last got your reprieve

I wish I was naive my dear-
Forget of every word you've said.
This pain would go away somehow,
And I wouldn't be feeling dead.

She's never been known to talk too much
But she's not afraid to touch the ones she loves
She won't run away

She never has much to say
But when she does you don't look away
Or close your eyes
Yeah, she's a good girl
And she's been good to me

She says she's not afraid to die
But when she does, don't be afraid to cry
It's alright

She talks of life and what it means
Her voice is quiet and her words are clean
She's lost in a daydream
Yeah, she's a good girl
And she's been good to me

I wish I could always be
As good to her as she's been to me
Everyday

But I get lost and stuck sometimes
And she's the furthest thing from my mind
It's sad to say
But ****, she's a good girl
And she's been good to me

I wanna go far, far from this animosity
Far enough where no one can see me
So far that no one can hear me,
Way too far that I won't know anybody

I wanna go away,
but I can't find the right way
I wanna go so far away,
Where the unwanted children like me plays

I'll be walking til' I can,
To reach my destination which I can
It doesn't matter what time it is
I'll keep moving forward until I can

I'll play a song in my head
I'll feel the breeze with every breath
I'll watch the cars that'll pass me by
And they wish if I'll hitch-hike

I know you're strong.
A force to be embraced and not confined.
I can't grasp you,
You're too powerful.
But I can lay here with you and enjoy your fury.
I can wait for you to move me...

You are a hurricane
I feel your force and I know that you can cause damage.
I do not question your abilities, but I push your boundaries.
I want to hear you crash on my shore and pour down upon me.
Break me.
Don't hold back.
Show me what your made of.
