Floatin'

Magnified mind with this head in the clouds
These waves are crashing, splashing, acting in a fashion
That I can't see It's too loud
And I have dreams but you might want to go take them from me
Cause who knows where that road might
Lead me to the land that I was promised I'd live
My head is heavy holdin' steady from this weather
That I'm lost and caught in
And I've got dreams that I don't need to have when I get old
I just need somebody who knows

Oh, I'm swimming alone out here
With an anchor tied to my chair
At the bottom of the ocean
And oh
I'm swimming alone out here
How can you promise my dear
That I'm right where I'm supposed to be?
So tell me do you love all the things that I've become?
Cause I can't seem to
And I'm drowning on my own
If I open my eyes will I see anyone floatin' alongside me?

I heard 'em say that the truth sets you free
But instead I'm shipwrecked and left with a heck of a lotta shade
From these trees
And I got dreams
But I'm not sure that they're gonna hold up
Now all I see is these
Bubbles going up while I'm going down
I'm around where they feed to the sound of the weak deep in doubt
And taking heat and in need on the ground but as I lounge
You wouldn't believe what I found
Put 'em underwater & watch what they create
Ever seen a man drownin' with a smile on his face?
As he's dying in this place
Watch 'em as he takes him from rollin' in the ocean
To floatin' right up in space
Sing

Take this heart all apart and pick me up off the floor
Take this hole that I've been holdin'
I don't need it anymore
Cause I've got dreams & I kind of wanna know where they lead
And there's really only one way to see

Oh, you're never alone out there
No matter what you stare at
You're walkin' with soldiers
And though
I can't see between those eyes
I hope you recognize
That you aren't the one to set yourself free
And I promise that I love all the things that you'll become
Cause I can see through the deception in your soul
If you open your eyes to the truth
You'll see an army floatin' alongside you
