Cultivated

It’s a fixation
I’m cultivated now
It’s not what I love
But what you won’t allow
Your asking for a promise I can’t keep
You like to see me on my knees
Begging for the silence
When you scream
I’m sinking down
To the depths of the ocean
I’m hangin’ on
To the weight of my love
If I let go
Of it all I could leave
But I know I won’t
Under the surface
The water fills my lungs
This ground I worship
Has swallowed up its young
You’ll kill a promise I can’t keep
Just like a game of hide and seek
The secrets in the silence
When you scream
I’m sinkin’ down
To the depths of the ocean
I’m hangin’ on
To the weight of my love
If I let go
Of it all I could leave
But I know I won’t
I’m sinkin’ down
To the depths of the ocean
I’m hangin’ on
To the weight of my love
If I let go
Of it all I could leave
But I know I won’t
The secrets in the silence
How could I have been so unaware?
The secrets in the silence
You only tie me down to cut my hair
The secrets in the silence
But now I’m waking from the silence, when you scream
I’m sinkin’ down
To the depths of the ocean
I’m hangin’ on
To the weight of my love
If I let go
Of it all I could leave
But I know I won’t
I’m sinkin’ down
To the depths of the ocean
I’m hangin’ on
To the weight of my love
If I let go
Of it all I could leave
But I know I won’t
I’m sinkin’ down
To the depths of the ocean
I’m hangin’ on
To the weight of my love
If I let go
Of it all I could leave
But I know I won’t
