before i sink

Don't say a word Let our only witness be this tiny bluebird Squeeze my shaking hand Hold it till you're certain it won't shake again It's never really over I'm always one step away from going back to the deep waters But I have promises to keep and miles to go before I sink And it takes everything in me to stand still And it takes everything in me to stay here Sun on my spine I pray that it won't end up with ashes on the ground Sweet lullabies What if it's the siren's call and I'm falling into a trap It's never far behind me And I'd be lying if I said that I'm finally clean But I have promises to keep And miles to go before I sink And it takes everything in me to stand still And it takes everything in me to stay here
