Well lately I’ve been anchored
Grinding nerves to dust by the hour
All my eyes see is dissaray
This crushing weight becomes me
It gathers on the surface like a bruise
Waiting to attain, I’m waiting to loose
Love left me with all these anchors
With all these anchors
Time took me in and casted me out
with all these anchors
with all these anchors
And I face the bottom without closure here
Turn me around, show me the way I’ve been
Turn you around, look at how you’ve been
Another touch lost
Followed by memories tossed
And how it descended into the sea
not what I intended for us to be
Just a tear in the fabric
That these worn hands can’t repair
Love left me with all these anchors
With all these anchors
Time took me in and casted me out
with all these anchors
with all these anchors
And I face the bottom without closure here
Turn me around, show me the way I’ve been
Turn you around, look at how you’ve been
Well lately I’ve been anchored
Grinding nerves to dust by the hour
All my eyes see is dissaray
This crushing weight becomes me
From here to the shore I’ve cleared a path
For myself to wander when I initiate the recovery
And as for the rest, I left it circling in air
And one day it’ll all come crashing down
It’ll all come crashing down
This time on other end I make a sound
Love left me with all these anchors
With all these anchors
Time took me in and casted me out
with all these anchors
with all these anchors
And I face the bottom without closure here
There’s no closure here
No closure here, with all these anchors
