03. The Anchors

We Do What We Want
by Emery



 

 

And it hurt just to touch
On the words
I said too much
I was just a kid
I thought that I could not be caught and much less by a moment
But the words came flooding from my mouth

Some things will never surface
They capsized so long ago
I didn’t want to still be sinking
But the anchor, won’t let me go

Those things that we thought, were never there
Those ghosts we brought with us everywhere

From your birth you were born in to this
never knowing when the walls would crack
In your defense you were so unprepared you
Said the things that you can’t take back

Those things that we thought were never there
Those ghosts we brought with us everywhere

I want to explain this but nothings making sense
There’s poison in my blood
It claimed both of our lives
That world we thought important
Crumbled into nothing

Will words define me I am more than a moment
Will words define me I am more than a moment
That day behind me but I cannot shake it
I am more than a moment, more than a moment

And the beauty left my eyes
I was standing there with the rest of my life
Knowing I would never be the same
Knowing I had changed
I had become more than what I had dreamed
The look of the youth but with hands stained
The look of the youth but with my hands stained

Tell them I’m sorry
Does she know I’m sorry
How were those words in my head
For somebody else, Somebody else
I wish that I would have said
Anything else, anything else

Guilty, guilty I am guilty
The bitter treasures so elementary
