The Reticent

I keep losing track of time

My sense of self

Where I belong

I keep falling deeper into the hole

Disconnected

All alone

Through it all

We love, we fall

We hope, we fear

We fight, we crawl

Against it all

Willful and strong

Until the waves take us

Take us home

My mind is racing

Lost train of thought

Eyes unfocused

Tired of this world

These walls will collapse

Wash out to the sea

And I'll float along

Let the stream carry me

Through it all

We love, we fall

We hope, we fear

We fight, we crawl

Against it all

Willful and strong

Until the waves take us

Take us home

Through it all

We love, we fall

We hope, we fear

We fight, we crawl
