Tides -

So here we are without an anchor to call our own.

When will you realize we’re all alone?

We’re on our own.

I refuse to fall in this unforgiving sea once again.

I’ve scratched and crawled my way to the surface

to stay awake and not give up on myself.

Don’t crawl to me because you don’t have the strength

to pick yourself up.

So get back on your feet.

And I won’t always be there to help you when you’re down.

Don’t lose all hope and depend on me.

I’m sick of waiting for you.

When will you realize, we’re all alone.

Don’t hold your breath.

Get a hold of yourself.

Stand your ground.

The water is rising up.

I am no savior, and I am no hero.
