lyrics

I’m a little bit lost today
But I guess that’s nothing new
If I’m tethered to someone else
I could do a lot worse than you
I threw the anchor overboard
Or I might have let it slip
Because I found me a cinderblock
That I can curl up in my grip
Right now we’re stowing away in each other’s arms
Somehow we’re weathering all of the constant storms
Too late to pull us apart with a meek regret
Our fate was sealed on the afternoon we met

We’re drowning together, drowning
We’re drowning together, together

You’re a little bit lost today
And you’re looking for some help
The dial lands upon my hands
To come and save you from yourself
I see you found a brand new job
Then you blinked and it was gone
Now you’re at the end of the rope
You use to pull yourself along
I can’t imagine what it’s like inside your head
Distant unless you’re codependent instead
I fail to stop myself drilling a hole in the boat
So bail just enough water to keep us afloat

I thought a message in a bottle
Was delivered to me, oh yeah
Except the bottle only held the pills
That help me to sleep, oh yeah

I fear the moment we both get overwhelmed
Can’t steer, we don’t have a captain at the helm
Grab on and whatever you do, please don’t let go
We’re gone, caught in each other’s undertow
