Tide

I've been staring at the numbers they're not mine
Comparison steals your joy and scars your soul over time
But there's no correlation between words and action
And waiting for breakthrough is like walking a thin line
But my faith has grown new branches
And the blossoms they're advancing all the time

I was lost in an uncertain tide
Didn't know which way to go or even why
My bones seemed to ache with a weariness inside
Frayed beyond the edges had nothing left to hide

But you love me with all of my flaws
And that's what unconditional love is for
So I'll keep on going swimming against the tide
Heading for your shore
But you love me with all of my flaws
And that's what unconditional love is for
So I'll keep on going swimming against the tide
Heading for your shore

Sometimes I see the world through a broken lens
It takes the colours and makes all the light bend
And like a blanket it covers all of life sparkling gems
Until the wind and waves come reset it again
So no matter the numbers I gonna keep on going
Cos against the odds is my best bet
And when I'm heading for you
It's the strongest I get

I was lost in an uncertain tide
Didn't know which way to go or even why
My bones seemed to ache with a weariness inside
Frayed beyond the edges had nothing left to hide

But you love me with all of my flaws
And that's what unconditional love is for
So I'll keep on going swimming against the tide
Heading for your shoreBut you love me with all of my flaws
And that's what unconditional love is for
So I'll keep on going swimming against the tide
Heading for your shore
