Anchors Away

I’m an anchor
When you’re drifting away
Throw me overboard to stay afloat
A sacrificial GOAT
Is all I’ve ever been

Caught on your chain
You let me hit the bottom
Just to reel me back in
To cast away for safety once again

But the next time I hit the rocks
I’m going to grow roots
And I will plant myself under the sea
Safely sheltered in the calm dark
From the storms on the horizon

And when the crew does see
They will search for me
Pulling upon the chain
But I will not leave

The wheel stops spinning
Time will stop
Adrenaline rushes
Exposure and saturation pops

You will cut yourself free
Or you will drown to be with me
Once your throw away savior
Now your tie to the danger
I will hold your vessel in rain
Until you find the center

And the peace of the eye
Within the devil and I
