I tuck my old self in an old shirt that's of no use to me
I fold in the worn edges so their not easily seen
place it high on a shelf, just out of my reach
in a box of fading melodies
(ch)This is where it changes for me
I have been swimming too deep, looking for
changes in the tide around me
Though I am tempted by the old ways
it's not the safe road (same mistake) that
I'll take (make)
I'll let my body and mind speak to me
I feel like a child on unchartered ground
I am drawn to the water
but so afraid that I'll drown
I'm not really sure how I feel
when you're not around...to tell me
(br)It's all in the past
the uncertain allure that has guided me
The giving, the taking not bending but
breaking like brittle limbs in the breeze
