Anchor lyrics

Tepid waves

Of trepidation covering me

As if to provide

A moment of clarity

What lies ahead

Is it another unfolding travesty again?

I'm searching for substance

But I don't even fit into my own skin

You spoke of a world full of purpose

As I choked down every single lie

'Til I sank all the way to the bottom

With a heavy heart like an anchor deep inside

And it's dragging me down

Down, down, down

You state your case

But the words fall like broken mirrors

And shifting the blame

Won't provide another place to hide

What lies ahead

Is it another misguided, sad, and failed attempt?

I'm searching for anything

But I haven't even seen the sun in days

You spoke of a world full of purpose

As I choked down every single lie

'Til I sank all the way to the bottom

With a heavy heart like an anchor deep inside

You spoke of a world full of purpose

As I choked down every single lie

'Til I sank all the way to the bottom

With a heavy heart like an anchor deep inside

And it's dragging me down

Down, down, down
