Lyrics
The Undertow
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I stand here with my feet in the sand
Just waiting for the tide to pull me out
To show me how to live, to cleanse me of all my burdens
Live life the way you have always wanted to
Not what others have written
But if you find yourself lost in its pages
Find your heart and it'll guide you through in the right direction
I hope you're still standing after the waves have crashed overhead
Caught in the undertow, they gesture for you
I can't keep living the way you want me to
It's not for you to decide
I've got one shot to make it through
Let's look to the past and look to the future with an open heart, and a wiser mind
You’ve learned from mistakes and gained perception
You’ve become what I’ve always wanted
Free from future, living in this moment
I can't keep living the way you want me to
It's not for you to decide
I've got one shot to make it through
I'm just a man
With ambitions and an iron hand
And I’d like to prevail
Now that I'm stronger than before
Listening to the present
Being aware of the past
