Throw Me a Line


I feel like I've been treading water for so long now
I see no end in sight.
what you've turned this into
what you're doing to me
I can't say that it feels right.
and I spin round and round in circles
around those words you said.
you can't be serious
when you say it's all in my head.

don't tell me you don't know.
just say the words and I'll go.
but we both know it's not that simple for me
because the story's getting old.
redundancy's taken hold.
can't wait around for you forever.
and I'm thinking about the future that I though we had: was it all that bad? no.
gotta shoot this straight with me because I can't stop thinking about this:
will the space that you wanted turn into the space between you and I -
a sea of grey.
throw me a line.
help me I am sinking.

help me before I drown.

drug back through the mud again
just when I thought we were through with all of that.
it's time now
that I must begin
to get my self esteem back
get my life back on track
save me.
someone come along
give me air to breathe
then you stab me,
twisted my words one more time
I accept it so foolishly.

don't tell me you don't know.
just say the words and I'll go.
but we both know it's not that simple for me
because the story's getting old.
redundancy's taken hold.
can't wait around for you forever.
and I'm thinking about the future that I though we had: was it all that bad? no.
gotta shoot this straight with me because I can't stop thinking about this:
will the space that you wanted turn into the space between you and I -
a sea of grey.
throw me a line.
help me I am sinking.

help me before I drown.

tomorrow I'll be gone
I'll leave you with this song
couldn't float aroud in space forever
it's so hard to let you go
I'm feeling so hollow
but at least I know just where I'm standing.

Throw Me a Line
