What are
all these doubts, fears,
Emotions coursing through
my veins and
Why
am I finding it so hard to breathe
Really breathe, deep in and back out
Instead I feel tight inside
It feels
wrong and I don’t think
I can stand on this shaky ground
Ground
That’s the problem, isn’t it
I’ve stepped off the rock
I’ve been standing on,
traded it for something that held my fancy and
now I’m here broken again
Turns out
when you aren’t pressing forward
you’re backsliding and
life is more like swimming upriver
than floating in a lake
So wake up, sleeper and
don’t fall back asleep
Cling to the rock you can stand on
