Echolyn - The Currents of Me lyrics

(Lyrics by Cris Buzby and Ray Weston) Take away my pleasures All my freedom gained Taking the answers Only fuels my brain Dove headfirst so long ago Still can't swim this deep Closing in on here and now Finding the currents of me Take the personality From myself and I The faith I live for More than meets the eye Take from me desire Five senses pull Shove me naked Strengthen all I do It's rare for me to worry yet worry's all I do It serves as my protection and always pulls me through I never thought I'd see this day until the day I did Always wrapped around this moment for each moment lived So this is what it's like I had forgotten The shine has worn, my head has shrunk From bending ourselves to shape Still, we shape ourselves to fit Fit ourselves to wear, we don't fit So this is what it's like I had forgotten Back to size at 2 years dead Hungry for change again Spread apart the reason Scattering goals Stifle my potential Never fill my role Take it all, go hide it Take it far from here My own agenda Has real alternatives Dove headfirst so long ago Still can't swim this deep Closing in on here and now Finding the currents of me And everything I believe Is riding these currents of me I've found my place in it - it's such a perfect fit I find it hard to leave - it's everything to me I'm sending up my last flare To meet whatever calls me here to find me Treading for nothing I can't keep stopping and starting this thing without a warning I never know just where it's gonna take me I just let it take me... It's gotta make me ride out, to make me ride in But it all washes up in the end... Then you'll see (then you'll see)
