about

Co-written by Melody Chebrellan and Ben Pfister

lyrics

I’m losing touch with reality
It’s just too much for me today
I’m losing ground
The soil's washing away

I float unbound its laws can’t tether me
I drift way down can’t tell whether we
Are lost or being found

I stroke making waves
I watch the ripples take shape
Ropes and sails
My lifeboat won’t fail me
When the tide drags me

No, no fear
I’m nearly complete
Yes, it’s clear
No way I’ll retreat
I hear my heart pounding
Anxieties bounding
I take my escape

And
I’m losing grips with solidity
It all just slips through my fingers
I get lost in my fantasies
But your kiss still lingers

I’m constructing out of dust
Fanciful dream worlds built on trust
Screws and nails
My hardhat won’t fail me
When it all falls

No, no fear
I’m nearly complete
Yes, it’s clear
No way I’ll retreat
I hear my heart pounding
Anxieties bounding
I take my escape


And
I recede breathing heavily
For relief I sing and play
I release immersed in melody
And for a moment I’m okay
