I built a boat today, I pushed the world away The water was so cold, but the sand seemed so old In our garden's permanent snow, there wasn't room for life to grow And just because you say that there's a wind somewhere It doesn't help me at all if it's not behind my back But if I've got my oars, I'm all alone and it's all I ever was It's not in what you say It's in how it's said You can write your life away I've been doubting your passions so much these days Who do you suffer for? Out of conversation into concentration, Your words sound much better in your head We watch all our actions to avoid missteps Not provide correction, just protect ourselves A pathetic lesson in how to care About no one but yourself The offing has caught me But the sun cannot stop me I'll go beyond its rays into better days, And leave this world behind me We lost ourselves to argument I won't let my pride trap me in cement It's not okay to walk away from the one thing you love on the grounds that you hate everything else I didn't have to, but I did it for you From Letras Mania
