Undertow

Must confess I'm astounded
Caught on the blindside by currents surrounding me, I
Should have paid more attention
Missed the inflections that passed for affection and now
Well I guess this is goodbye
Damage is done, there's no way to reverse and rewind
Try and see things through your eyes
Chance for a new life means cutting all ties and I'm

Feeling the body blow
Caught by the undertow
Rip tides are pulling me
Far off and out to sea
Out into the
Deep

So I'm treading deep water
Watching thе shore as it fades in the distancе and I
Navigate the new normal
Thrashing around but resistance is futile and burns
Those important resources
Focus on staying afloat, on the hunt for a lifeboat
Holding out for a hero
Seeking salvation to take me away from this

Feeling the body blow
Caught by the undertow
Rip tides are pulling me
Far off and out to sea
Out into the
Deep

Rising sun brings redemption
Glints on the rigging a fishing boat on the horizon
And I'm dragged up by my neck
Dried on the deck as I purge the sea water and

Breathe for the longest time
Freed from the salty brine
Reborn and glistening
Glad for the little things

Taking the body blow
Wise to the undertow
Rip tides are pulling me
Far off and out to sea
Out into the
Deep
