Openwater - Fish

I’m running out of options, running out of road, got no sense of direction,

sliding out of control

Going in search of nowhere, just some place to hide, from these omnipresent

problems

I just can’t hide from life

You set sail under cover of the darkness

By the early light I knew that you had gone

In search of new horizons, where the sky melts in the sea

I followed in the hope that I could catch you

And convince you our directions were the same

That we could steer the same journey across the oceans

Fly our flags together in a heaven full of stars

But you blew out the water the first chance that you had

If you want me, you know exactly where I am

Adrift in open water, I’m gazing at the stars I’ll be gazing at the stars

I went down with all hands in the morning;

I was clinging to the wreckage of a dream

Praying for a rescue that I knew would never come

I watched your sails disappear into the distance;

I saw my life in the currents floating by

I was left to the mercy of the four winds and the tides

To carry me to shorelines where sea and sands collide

If you want me, you know exactly where I am, adrift in open water

I’ll be gazing at the stars, I’ll be gazing at the stars

You said more in the things you didn’t say

I told you that I loved you and I meant it

We were heading for the rocks;

we’d reached the point of no return

One day I will manage to forget you, one day I will get you out of my mind

Delete the photographs, the images, the numbers on the phone

The messages you sent me that I held on for so long

If you want me, you know exactly where I am, sailing open waters

I’ll be gazing at the stars, I’ll be gazing at the stars
