The Brink

Let me hold your baggage so I feel needed
Let me hold your hand so someone's holding mine
Let me swallow you whole so I won't be empty
Let me feel your pain and pretend it's mine

Can I drown myself in your deepest ocean?
And can you ask the waves to take their time?
Can I smother you in my devotion?
Can we lie together and pretend we're fine?

Oh, my love
Why don't you stay?
And I'll tell you all the things
I never had the courage to say
Like oh, sometimes
I don't feel okay

When the suddenly the world stops turning
And fiction becomes reality
When all we feel is missing and yearning
Can we fall asleep?
Can we share our dreams?

Waiting for time to make this shine
But all it does is make it rust
It's a long way down to the bottom
Now I'm crumbling and covered in dust

Oh, my dear
Don't overthink
Just breath and watch your tears
Pop the bubbles in the sink
And don't look down
You're on the brink

Oh, can't you see
I'm trying to swim
In this water that I'm in

Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm trying to swim
