Waterlogged (All Else Failed)

It slips away, buoyant for now It's drifting past, just out of your reach Though you swim fast, something still holds you back The current's strong, but I'm your anchor You turn to me to cut you loose But I just smile and hold you closer I fit you like a pair of concrete shoes And the water is rising So snug it's suffocating and the dead weight drags us both under Sinking in a sea of promise, I whisper everything's ok Embrace me and we'll both go under As your dreams drift away. As your dreams drift out.
