Anchor

Lyrics for Anchor

would you take it from me see I’m standing waist deep need an anchor an encore proof of belief I’d take it from you a treasure a truth a mark in the map of the infinite blue put me to use tell me what to do the book in my pocket says don’t lose don’t lose put me to use show me something new that this book is a stone is a wave is a ruse take me back I’m crawling take me back and make me clean hold out your hands I’m falling bittersweet bittersweet my love of the sea like a child like a thief take what I want and then quickly retreat my fear of the sea like a child let free kick up the edges where mother can still reach take me back I’m crawling take me back and make me clean hold out your hands I’m falling bittersweet bittersweet I tripped climbing a silver ladder called my dad to make it better but I’m not getting through and I don’t know just what to do here I lie my thoughts all battered porcelain skin as if it mattered sing me joni’s blue show me what I’ve come to lose
