I wish I could take my tears, lay them down, then swim away
but you'd wrap an anchor to my heel and watch till the break of day
at the bottom I'd lose sense of time, everything would be dark as night
It's okay, I am used to that feeling where nothing seems alright

I wish I could take my own given scars and camouflage within the heather
but you'd destroy my sweet undergrowth by calling nasty weather
from the bottom I'd watch the trees fall towards me from every end
It's okay, I can take the pain, my heart naturally doesn't mend 

I wish I could take all my hard work to soar away like a crow 
but you'd load your gun, fire your trigger, and hit me with one blow
I'd fall down and hit the ground before even blinking
It's okay, I live in a world where everythings always sinking.
