deadwater

if i could be stronger

and if you were just older

we might last this out longer

but the task just gets harder

and my face turned to red

from drinking all that dead water

and then again when you said

that i was my mother's daughter

shaky when he comes to me

shaky but i believe

shaky and i'm on my knees

there are better things for me

shaky when i came to be

when they left

they left me in pieces

shaky

but i believe

there are better things for me

if my legs were longer

they might carry us further

but we waited too long

and so the task just gets harder

and the thoughts that come in

they come on stronger and stronger

and it takes all of me

to just stay out of the water

shaky when he comes to me

shaky but i believe

shaky and i'm on my knees

there are better things for me

shaky when i came to be

when they left

they left me in pieces

shaky

but i believe

when you left

you left for a reason

ohhhh

take me to the things i see i see

my eyes can reach passed all that's been laid out for me

shaky when he comes to me

shaky but i believe

shaky and i'm on my knees

there are better things for me

shaky when i came to be

when they left

they left me in pieces

shaky

but i believe

there are better things for me
