Boundaries

I never really believed you were mine
Even though that's how we're told to define love
Love does not seek to control or confine
Even though that's more than I can say of mine

But maybe we just need a little more time
To sit back and watch these knots unwind
You know everyone's scared they're losing their minds
But if you open your eyes, they're easy enough to find
Too bad we're so fucking stoked to be blind

I can't seem to shake what you said
And I don't feel safe in my head
I will be raised from the depths
Of my sorrows, at least when I'm dead

Mother, forgive me, I'm lost
But I'll find my way home, whatever the cost
I'll lay down my weapons and crawl
My way back over all the boundaries I've crossed

Well I know it's hard to loosen your grip
But try to see you're hanging on to a sinking ship
No matter what, just remember to breathe
'Cause I believe we got a few cards up our sleeve

And everything is a part of the whole
So don't let the black hole in you take control
Everything has a reason to be
So don't believe it when they tell you you're not free
And it's you pitted against me

I can't seem to shake what you said
And I don't feel safe in my head
I will be raised from the depths
Of my sorrows, at least when I'm dead

Mother, forgive me, I'm lost
But I'll find my way home, whatever the cost
I'll lay down my weapons and crawl
My way back over all the boundaries I've crossed
