Tryna tread water but my hearts too heavy to float Starvin for air prayin for a boat Wings they won't help you if you don't know how to swim Perhaps it's better to leave before you begin Drownin in my head but I don't mind the taste Closin my eyes cuz I don't wanna wait No strength in my blood left to fight The venom from this snake bite So I sit and I think cuz I'm too scared to sleep I'm cold and I'm numb but I'm comfortable this deep A garden gone wild overgrown and over-sown It's hard to smell the flowers when you feel so far from home From an angels womb but I came out with horns In the wild grew a rose that didn't know it had thorns In the wood I slipped through a momentary door Felt so confused ever since I was born My mind is dual and now my hearts been torn Wish I could split in two and disappear before Someone sees my noose and my ropes too short Felt so consumed ever since I was born Slides across the water in his long black coat Guess I'll take one more ride in his old wooden boat Found the strength and I swam To greet my old friend The boatman
