Satellites & Sirens – Anchor lyrics

You said, "Open your eyes." and
I said I don't like surprises
You said, "Surprise, you're up to your knees in the water and don't have a life vest."
I know, I know, I know, but don't worry
'Cause I've got it figured out

You said, "Jump in the boat, man."
I said no; you reach your hand
You said, "The storms that will come will be more than enough and alone you cannot win
You know, you know, without hope
You'll only sink not swim."

And the current here is stronger now, than I remember
And I'm crying for you to help
Please save me

When I feel like I am drifting away
Sinking down, the sails aren't shipping today
I'm about to lose my way
You anchor, anchor me down
Looking out, the skies are turning to gray
All around the tide is pulling away
Just about to lose my way
You anchor, anchor me down

You said, "Whatever happens
Don't get caught in the rapids
Hold on." I'm over the edge and I'm reaching for help 'cause I'm paddling the deep end
I know, I know, I know what you said:
That I'm in over my head

You said I'm not alone here
I said throw me a rope and
I've had more than enough of the rain and the cold and I wanna give up and
I know, I know, I know without hope
I'll only sink not swim

And the current here is stronger now, than I remember
And I'm crying for you to help
Please save me

When I feel like I am drifting away
Sinking down, the sails aren't shipping today
I'm about to lose my way
You anchor, anchor me down
Looking out, the skies are turning to gray
All around the tide is pulling away
Just about to lose my way
You anchor, anchor me down

And the current is stronger now, than I remember
When I cry for you to help
You save me

And the current is stronger now, than I remember
And I'm crying out for you to help
And you save me

When I feel like I am drifting away
Sinking down, the sails aren't shipping today
I'm about to lose my way
You anchor, anchor me down
Looking out, the skies are turning to gray
All around the tide is pulling away
Just about to lose my way
You anchor, anchor me down
