Tied between two strings how far can a heart stretch before you start to feel it in your bones I'll take the bits and pieces of myself and shape them into a toy boat to float across rivers and lakes over horizons and sunsets if the wind will be my love I will have no destination only water to sail Please do not let the water fill my lungs with breath out of reach let the light not leave my eyes a spark to balance me a spark to keep me I need to burn to keep the water at bay I will not drown in my own fear I will not drown alone |
