ANCHORS & OCEANS lyrics : "I Understand You"

Take a look at a picture of mine.
Take a look at the weight held inside of your eyes.
Bare with me, I'm tongue-tied again.

Trembling at the thought of change.
I caught myself always lying right through my teeth.
Stuck in the same routine, forever unchanging.

And I call myself a role model?

I know I'm lost.

Every step is a struggle in itself.
My eyes have spilled,
Years of emotion I just kept hidden.


Have you lost yourself again?
Sitting on the edge of the world without a home?

Do the words you speak take the breath from your lungs?
It kills me to see you the way I was.
I see your glasses fogging from all your tears.

I'm holding onto you while you're barely holding onto life.
Don't quit, you're the reason I'm still alive.
It's not the end.


I know I'm lost.
Every step is a struggle in itself.

My eyes have spilled,
Years of emotion I just kept hidden.
Now that we're here, please know I understand you.

Now that you're here, please don't give up this fight.

For as long as I live, you'll never be alone.

Even if I'm just the same, even if I'm going insane.
God forbid you end this fight, I'll follow suit.
I'll leave armed with just a picture of me & you.

Now you're in ink across my chest.
Please don't go out like this!


All I wanted was to save your life...
All I wanted was to say goodbye...
