Cultivated

It's a fixation
I'm cultivated now
It's not what I love
But what you won't allow

Your asking for a promise I can't keep
You like to see me on my knees
Begging for the silence
When you scream

I'm sinking down
To the depths of the ocean
I'm hangin' on
To the weight of my love
If I let go
Of it all I could leave
But I know I won't

Under the surface
The water fills my lungs
This ground I worship
Has swallowed up its young

You'll kill a promise I can't keep
Just like a game of hide and seek
The secrets in the silence
When you scream

I'm sinkin' down
To the depths of the ocean
I'm hangin' on
To the weight of my love
If I let go
Of it all I could leave
But I know I won't

The secrets in the silence

How could I have been so unaware?
You only tie me down to cut my hair
But now I'm waking from the silence, when you scream
