Like a flower

I could so easily let myself drown

I could so easily let myself go down

(let myself go down)

I let the water run down my head

I try to surrender

Try to be tender

But I can't catch my breath

The deeper the inhale

The harder the stomach clenches and rejects

I've been running on empty

Choking on exhales

Incense

Steam from the shower

Loveless defenses

The grip of the Tower

Blood in your veins

On your hands

Feel the power

Of losing yourself

'Till you wilt like a flower

I let the world collapse around me

I've tried to control it

Tried to uphold it

But I can't take that weight anymore

Oh, God,

Send the angels to hold and protect me

Through all I'm creating

I've been running on empty

Choking on exhales

Incense

Steam from the shower

Loveless defenses

The grip of the Tower

Blood in your veins

On your hands

Feel the power

Of losing yourself

'Till you wilt like a flower
