Iâve been swimming around the waves and being slowly swept away.
Itâs closing in: the undertow: is gonna bury me.
And I seem to notice, my clarity diminishing,
Iâm questioning everything. Submerged in the filth of my foolishness.
I canât explain this progress, I canât explain
How did I put myself here?
How did I lose my self control?
Behind the walls I can watch my mountains grow.
How can I speak of this? I feel I canât speak of this.
I need to be rescued from this place,
Look at all the dirt in my hands, I canât hold this weight.
And all the waves are crashing, now that I am sinking,
Now it all becomes so clear, all this time all this time
There, your hand was there all along
This filthy habit had me in a stronghold
Why is it that I always try to help myself?
When you were my councillor, you are my councillor.
Grace come, these mountains, peel them away,
Iâve been staring at the floor
And I fueled the waves that swallow me,
I have no air.
Take your first steps to recovery.
Iâm a fool, clean me up, clean me out.
It goes deeper than you know.
