Adrift

You wouldn't believe me if I told you that you are true north And in my heart there's a needle, it's always pointed at you I'm following your light around this place, so give me grace Oh let me savor your sweet symphony And I'll try to remember to temper the darkness The spark, and the longing for more The current carries me away, another drop into the fray She'll never release me, enraptured And culled by the edge of the ember Slowly surrender my soul I'm bellowing the echo in my heart Through the dark, fan the spark The breath that I breathe feeds the flame in your pyre, yeah And I'll try to embrace every texture and taste As I chase every chance that I choose I'll bring the fire, you bring the fuse I was alone, adrift in the void Drank from a well that ran dry And I tilled the fields of ash and remains Coughed up all my swallowed pride And I was the martyr and you were the muse And the world was a drop in our hands So take what you want and I'll take what I can I could use a friend for the night I'm a foe to myself, front seat to the fight Let me crumble inside you And never see the light of day again Could you do that for me my friend?
