A Turning of the Tide

So I’m coming around to the reality
Of just what went down from the passenger seat
I’m hearing you now, a bit of clarity
So I’m gonna skip out, yeah I guess that’s it
Have you said what you needed to?
You could have stayed if you wanted to
Don’t remember the drive but remember the wheel
It’s a bit like we were, only half on our heels
I hope you’re feeling happier cause you said you weren’t that
I guess I could be happier, I got a future to look at
Have you said what you needed to?
You could have stayed if you wanted to
If you wanted to
It’s just a turning of the tide
It’s just a turning of the tide
It’s just a turning of the tide
Have you said what you needed to?
Stay if you want to
Guess you’ve said what you needed to
You could have stayed if you wanted to

It might make more sense in the morning
I’m too tired to keep on ignoring
All that keeps holding me down
So I’ll take out these rocks that are weighing me here
In amongst all of your memory
It’s the right way forward from now
It’ll take me a bit but I’ll meet someone
And I don’t know yet when that time will come
I’m opening to the thought of it
And I’ll take the hit that the ocean brings
As I reach the top from the depths beneath
I’m done sinking
Yeah I’d rather swim
I can’t do much more here so I’m going
I’m too wired from all of this talking
Thanks though, for having me round
I can drive my way home down that new coastal road
My windows are down, this never gets old
It’s the right way forward for now
It’ll take me a bit but I’ll meet someone
And I don’t know yet when that time will come
I’m opening to the thought of it
And I’ll take the hit that the ocean brings
As I reach the top from the depths beneath
I’m done sinking
Yeah I’d rather swim
Well I believe
I believe in something more
Than what we live
Cause what the hell are we living for
If not to breathe?
If not to get up and go?
Cause I believe, yeah I believe in something more
I believe
I believe in something more
Than what we live
Cause what the hell are we living for?

The morning light
It’s all blue off-whites and running us ahead
It’s quite a sight for sorer eyes that are trying to express
The way I feel I struggle to tell you
And I know I’ve got some work to do
Open up the sails to the wind and test your shoulders
Pull the rope; a little tighter grip, your hands can hold us
This gust of courage is all it takes
To stack all the pieces that we’d created
And I realize that there’s only so much air
So I decided that I’m gonna take a breath
We lost sight of the shoreline
Can’t find home so we divide
A warning sign
I’ve taken to this ship and its departments
Now I know that the tide can pull the currents that’ll guide us
But I will not break this mould I’ve shaped
And I confuse the things I’ve chased
And I realize that there’s only so much air
So I decided that I’m gonna take a breath
We lost sight of the shoreline
Can’t find home so we divide
What could I tell you?
Are you ready to choose?
It’ll be over soon
No, didn’t want
Didn’t want this
Who?
Who are you?
Holding onto the noose
No, didn’t want, didn’t want this

The Bit Between

What you wanted
What you needed wasn’t clear
Did I cause it? Did I push you there?
Well I’m not perfect but neither are the times
So now I’ll pocket all of what you were
And I’m under your skin
I’m in the bit between what’s in and out
What’s upside down
And I’m feeling the sting
If there’s an itch I’m in it now
I’ll scratch my way out
What you wanted is what you’d never find
At least I’m honest in all that hides
Well I’m not sure that you’d even tried
Cause all I got was half a real goodbye
Well I’m under your skin
I’m in the bit between what’s in and out
What’s upside down
And I’m feeling the sting
If there’s an itch I’m in it now
I’ll scratch my way out
And I’m under your skin
I’m in the bit between what’s in and out
What’s upside down
And I’m feeling the sting
If there’s an itch I’m in it now
I’ll scratch my way out
And I’m under your skin
I’m in the bit between what’s in and out
What’s upside down
And I’m feeling the sting
If there’s an itch I’m in it now
I’ll scratch my way out
And I’m under your skin
I’m in the bit between what’s in and out
What’s upside down
And I’m feeling the sting
If there’s an itch I’m in it now
I’ll scratch my way out

What you took from me
Is was what you were meant to leave
We owe our history
To call it for what it is
Is it the life you needed
One where I’m not in it
Oh how we’d grow like the trees did
But some don’t bear the leaves
I’m down, far down
Good things will come ‘round
But not now, not right now
Good things will come ‘round
This future can look up
If you lift your head unstuck
I don’t know which road I’ll take
But I’ll make my way through it
Keep out of those cliches
But know your distance stings
Go easy and be direct
Let’s see what’s coming next
I’m down, far down
Good things will come ‘round
But not now, not right now
But good things will come ‘round
They’re coming ‘round
They’re coming ‘round
Good things will come ‘round
They’re coming ‘round
They’re coming ‘round
They’re coming ‘round
They’re coming ‘round
They’re coming ‘round
They’re coming ‘round
This future can look up
If you lift your head unstuck (they’re coming ‘round)
I don’t know which road I’ll take
But I’ll make my way through it
