Washed up
Swept away
The rhyme of life
In
Out
In
Out
Lulling you to a sweet sleep
Inside your own world
Your own ocean
In
Out
The constant change
Becomes the new normal
Until it’s the same
Until the contrast is gone
You can’t feel the last pull
That brought you too far out
Pulled you under
You don’t know how to keep your head above the water
Because you never learn to swim
When you’ve always had the swirling water
To keep you afloat
But now there’s no in
It’s just out
And only when you’ve washed up on an island
Far out at sea
When you finally look back
But the shore is gone
And you realize
How far
You’ve really let yourself be swept
Into the pulsing waters
And you think of all the things you left behind
At the shore
So you will yourself to shut down
To slip into the water
To become what you aren’t
Until you're just another wave
Crashing at the shore
Not realizing that you’ve finally made it back
Fading away
In
Out
Swept away
The rhyme of life
In
Out
In
Out
Lulling you to a sweet sleep
Inside your own world
Your own ocean
In
Out
The constant change
Becomes the new normal
Until it’s the same
Until the contrast is gone
You can’t feel the last pull
That brought you too far out
Pulled you under
You don’t know how to keep your head above the water
Because you never learn to swim
When you’ve always had the swirling water
To keep you afloat
But now there’s no in
It’s just out
And only when you’ve washed up on an island
Far out at sea
When you finally look back
But the shore is gone
And you realize
How far
You’ve really let yourself be swept
Into the pulsing waters
And you think of all the things you left behind
At the shore
So you will yourself to shut down
To slip into the water
To become what you aren’t
Until you're just another wave
Crashing at the shore
Not realizing that you’ve finally made it back
Fading away
