Running To Water

In dire need of relief from a tormented soul
I've taken on uncertain at best while away
I thirst for what you used to hand the weak
So, you'll find me running to water these days...

It's going to take an ocean to say my desire here
Lots of water to calm the seas in my heart
Don't mind that my run to water consoles my being
Be what takes all the pain away while apart...

I'm dry to the touch I once felt awhile
Down with unbearable roughness hanging on
I'm running to water to soothe the day gone bad
That these past few days brought along...

Oh, I crave for refreshment only what you can provide
I beg for where the rivers reside
To end the hunger I've found to endure
Running to waters safety in my mind for sure...

Pardon my escape through brush and woodlands out there
I need clearance to quench what feels like you don't care
But, I'll find my way to the waters edge
Even being thorned to comforts bed...

Oh, there's safety in bodies of water that lie
Only available when I become teary-eyed
So, I'm running to water to take what I hold
Oh, I so don't mind if the run off is cold...
