Sinking
Sitting quietly, watching the ticking on the wall
She sits patiently she thinks maybe the world will fall
She says "I feel sometimes like I had nearly lost it all"
But the world is in her eyes
"Waiting" she said, "is the hardest thing to do
Don’t feel like somebody else and u don’t feel like u
Sometimes the light around me has the strangest hew
And I wonder what I’m going trough"
And
She’s on fire and the whole world is burning
Yeah, she’s on fire and you feel like the whole world just keeps turning
She says, "I’m so full of doubt, I don’t know if I’ll ever find a way out
Feels like something I read in a book somewhere
I’ve been thinking, u know I’ve been thinking
“Thought” myself into the ground
I’ve been thinking that I’m sinking"
Only half day trough and her mind begins to stroll
She talk to anyone so it’s anyone she told
There’s an empty chair at the end of an empty hall
And she feels small
Faces smile, she’s moving trough the crowd
The sun is shining but is higher in the clouds
She laughs from time to time but she feels a little loud
And she would cry but she’s too proud
And
She’s on fire and the whole world is burning
Yeah, she’s on fire and you feel like the whole world keeps turning
She says, "I’m so full of doubt, I don’t know if I’ll ever find a way out
Feels like something I read in a book somewhere
I’ve been thinking, u know I’ve been thinking
“Thought” myself into the ground
I’ve been thinking that I’m sinking"
And u wanna tell her that she’s gonna be fine
And u wanna tell her that the light hearts when you’ve been blind
She says "all I see stretching out before me is time"
She says "all I see stretching out before me is time"
Oh, so you wanna tell her that she’s gonna be fine
Oh woman, you’re drinking your soda like wine
Ohhh, woman don’t you know that you gonna be fine
Don’t you know that you gonna be fine
She sits patiently she thinks maybe the world will fall
