Kraken

Safety makes no difference to me

Sail

Before the demon is set free

Inhale

We have but little time now left to breathe

Head starboard and man the sails

I can see the beast upon the horizon

Navigate ourselves in circles

The stars behind the clouds

There's an open door on the ocean floor

And the phantom has come out

I can see the demon behind its eyes

(Alive)

Yet there's no soul inside

Collapse into myself

Witnessing everything I've never seen in a thousand horrid dreams

I'm trapped within and there's no way to spin this in my favor

Beg forgiveness from those above

No validation confirmation for the words behind my prayers

I'm so, I'm so scared

Safety makes no difference to me

I'm trapped in water whether I stay or I leave

Goodbye, I tried

Fear threaded through the lies that I keep inside

Sail

Before the demon is set free

Inhale

We have but little time now left to breathe

Captivated by this hatred

Directed at my being

I stand alone on the ocean floor

Sporadic motions tensing, reeling

I've locked myself inside

The key's not there to find

Facing every horrifying thought that's ever entered my mind

This time I'm taking a stand

The will that's left to survive will win this fight or there will be no next time

You'll never know if you don't try

These phobias are only alive

Through my breath, coming alive in my head

Safety makes no difference to me

I'm trapped in water whether I stay or I leave

Goodbye, I tried

Fear threaded through the lies that I keep inside

Keep me optimistic when the tides are in my favor

Savor every moment breathing as a moment taking everything for granted

Forcing feelings as a way to push the anger deeper

Keep the darkness inside me and drive right off the deep end

Safety makes no difference to me

I'm trapped in water whether I stay or I leave

Goodbye, I tried (Safety makes no difference to me)

Fear threaded through the lies that I keep inside (I'm trapped in water whether I stay or I leave)
