lyrics

sorry that i’ve been gone, it’s been a while
but the floor opened up and i left in a smile
i didn’t do anything, means by default
that i didn’t look after myself, it’s my fault

that i’m falling to sea
my sense of self is travelling
might help to see
sand in my eyes, can’t feel my feet
but it’s not in my remit to admit defeat

hold onto my hand and distract me as i try to breathe
cos i’m slipping out again
close to my chest as it tightens, sit right next to me
cos i’m slipping out again
ten more minutes and i’ll be fine again
keep me within your reach i’ll reach the end
just keep my eyes open please stay close to me
i’ll come back around again

focus on me now

when will this be won
i’ve drawn a map to 25
a hill to the sun
when do i walk and when to dive
do i brush against ferns when there’s no need to run

hold onto my hand and distract me as i try to breathe
cos i’m slipping out again
close to my chest as it tightens, sit right next to me
cos i’m slipping out again
ten more minutes and i’ll be fine again
just a minute for me to reach the end
just keep my eyes open please stay close to me
i’ll come back around again

focus on me now
