Standing at the edge of an endless dark sea
I kick off my shoes and let the cold water be
The tide keeps rolling in and washing back out
Erasing all my footprints and all of my doubt
I scream into the open
The horizon won't reply
To the waves, I'm throwing everything away
To the waves, come and take this weight today
Take me, let me empty till there's nothing left to hold
To the waves, wash me clean and make me whole
The salt is on my lips and the wind is in my chest
Every wave that breaks me leaves me somehow more at rest
I don't need to carry what I carried for so long
The ocean knows my secrets and it turns them into song
I scream into the open
The horizon won't reply
To the waves, I'm throwing everything away
To the waves, come and take this weight today
Take me, let me empty till there's nothing left to hold
To the waves, wash me clean and make me whole
Maybe I'll be lighter when the morning comes around
Maybe in this water all my broken pieces drown
To the waves, I'm giving all my fear away
To the waves, I'll come back here another day
Take me, I am hollow but I'm finally set free
To the waves, I'm learning how to breathe
