When I ran away from you all I needed was peace of mind
A slippery slope to help me float through the river that narrowly winds
But beside me was your shadow and below me was myself
And everything above me faded; faded into something else
So while I drifted through dirty water with empty thoughts that brought me shame
I tried to recognize our meaning, I tried to remember my own name
and as I struggled for a purpose to reach the surface of the stream
The current ripped and ravaged everything that my soul could redeem
I couldn't breathe in open air, I was drowning in your dream
Wishing to be all that you wanted, dying to give you everything
