Ripples

I, am scared.

Mutinous Waves of Self Inflicting Torture.

The mind plays tricks, watching the clock.

How can you do this to yourself?

Save

by The Rocket Summer

I'm not feeling touch,

I'm not making that much,
And I guess I am blessed,
But sometimes its just hard to see it as such.

I'm stuck and alone in the traffic lines,
While couples in love in the H-O-V fly by,
I don't get it,
I'm not asking for much,
But everybody wants to just have something.

So I'll be picking me up,
Breaking me down,
I was lost, was i found?
I want to feel everything.
When everything feels wrong with me.
Take a look,
And brace myself,
Everybody wants to make it count.

Save me,
Because I can never float
Sinking.
Amaze me,
And I would be there holding on for life.

Sitting again,
Sitting inside this drab apartment,
The walls are blank,
Its like they're talking to me.
I put a picture on the wall.
I took a chance, I took a fall.
She took off fast and gracefully.
Yes I was blind and now I see.

And I was picking me up,
Breaking me down,
I was lost, was I found?
I want to feel everything
When everything feels wrong.
Take a look,
And brace myself,
Everybody wants to make it count.

Save me,
Because I can never float
Sinking.
Amaze me,
And I would be there holding on for life.

And I could tell
From the picture I could feel,
I was sinking.
Pull me out,
Bring me back to life.
The colors
That my eyes had never seen,
Well I am seeing now.

Save me,
Because I can never float
Sinking.
Amaze me,
And I would be there holding on for life.

Save me,
Cause I can never float.
Sinking..
Amaze me,
And I would be there holding on for life.

So save.. me.
Save.
Save.. me.
Save me.
