Slipping Away

Love is making me anxious,
Spreading us outwards,
Never to come back again,
We dangle from a thread,
Cowering from the threat that we are selfish,
And this is it isn't it...

Save yourself,
Save us all,
Under pressure dealing with the stress
Renders me motionless
Our constructions of frustration,
It's made us so isolated,
But I'm still waiting,

The diamonds in the sky,
The ones you saw yourself,
Everything was simple,
But everything seems shorter,
And I'm held at arms length,
Trying to catch my breath,
As you hold me under the water,

Save yourself,
Save us all,
Under pressure dealing with the stress
Renders me motionless
Our constructions of frustration,
It's made us so isolated,
But I'm still waiting,

The waves of your emotion,
Setting this nightmare in motion,
And the icy looks turn me blue,
When I can't even bring myself to look at you,
I know I'm right,
I know you're wrong,
Both of us knew it all along,

And we're fighting the tide,
And I'm drowning without you by my side,
And the currents too strong,
As it pulls me along,
And it makes me slip away...
