lyrics

I thought I’d be the exception and I’d make it out
Jump onto the last lifeboat and swore that I tripped
And no one asks what I’m always on about
My words are terse and my speech is clipped

I was waiting I was waiting for an empty room
Made a promise to myself that I’d see it through

I’ve tread water and it feels like standing still
Tread water gasping breath to talk about my day
Tread water haven’t thought about tomorrow
I’ve tried but I know it’s not enough
I tread water doesn’t matter if I have the will
I tread water but if someone asks then I’m okay
I tread water even if nobody’s coming
Treading water would never be enough

I thought I needed more time to sort it out
I guess I prayed too hard for the world to stop
Form a chrysalis as I’m laying on the couch
Emerge out of focus against the backdrop

I was waiting I was waiting for the end, it came
Made a promise to myself I wouldn’t stay... the same

I’ve
Tread water and it feels like standing still
Tread water and you want to ask about my day
Tread water haven’t thought about tomorrow
I’ve tried but I know it’s not enough
I tread water doesn’t matter if I have the will
I tread water but if someone asks then I’m okay
I tread water even if nobody’s coming
Treading water wouldn’t be enough

I like to think I’m not in that deep
Then the sun comes up and I still don’t sleep
And it’s enough

And I tread water and it feels like standing still
Tread water gasping breath to make it through the day
Tread water haven’t thought about tomorrow
I’ve tried but I won't be enough
I tread water doesn’t matter if I have the will
I tread water but if someone asks then I’m okay
I tread water even if nobody’s coming
Treading water would never be enough

about

Fell From The Tree Rochester, New York

I fell from a tree.
I am in a fog and I catastrophize.
I am not ENOUGH, but that's ok.

Now I find Answers in Between
