On the Rocks - Afloat Lyrics

Floating with the wind, I am drifting east
It's like I calmed the ocean still and put the waves to sleep
But the tides are changing, no it ain't the same
There lies a faith in the absence of control they say

One step forth, and I try to get back
A coward's fear on trail with the weakest faith in man
You call me out my comfort, you call me out the boat
To walk on my own alone, alone

[Chorus]
Sometimes I am lost on the open water
Sometimes I am thrown by the wind and the waves
Sometimes I'm swimming in the deep end
Can I stay afloat, stay afloat

The ocean is deep below my feet
Afraid of what's to come, so I slowly start to sink
I was waiting for my ending, but then you grab my hand
Just like I knew you would, you would

Sometimes I am lost on the open water
Sometimes I am thrown by the wind and the waves
Sometimes I'm swimming in the deep end
Can I stay afloat, stay afloat

In the rain, there is a storm, barely breathing as I paddle
I am sinking- does it matter?
In my final breath, my only hope , you come to save me

Sometimes I am lost on the open water
Sometimes I am thrown by the wind and the waves
Sometimes I'm swimming in the deep end
Can I stay afloat, stay afloat
