Anchors

I've found science in the existence of my words

I've been keeping secrets safe

To hide the skin that lives inside my clothes

A little less than three days

I gave myself a shot at saving grace

She didn't believe in me

Scratch that, she never believed in anything

Hold your breath as I aim and shoot for the chest

I was always one for falling in love

But I gave up on that, I started to grow up

You help me fulfill my dreams

When I need to feel high and can't fall asleep

Is this reality? Or will you take two

Relax and call me in the morning?

"You shouldn't be so cruel

What did I ever do to you?"

I wish you would stop referencing yourself

We've all got monsters too

Deep down inside. They were sent to destroy you

The secret to keeping them in

Is the imagery; familiarization in the company you keep

We've all got lovers too

Try to take mine, I fucking dare you

My secret is hidden inside me

I use manipulation to the third degree

I've bottled up un-charted maps and lands

While keeping them all in the palm of my hand

I tried to convince myself to stay

But I realized that one day

We all will wash away
