May Lyrics

May rolls around

But I left my heart in January

Flowers are blooming

But everything's cold to the touch

Aren't the twenties the prime of your life?

Why does it feel like I've yet to reach mine?

Treading on thin ice

Oh, to feel secure

Wouldn't that be nice?

Cast my ashes and all my devotions

Let me lie with the ocean's emotions

'Cause I can't keep up with all the commotion

Let me sink deep

Maybe then I'll be free

May, she's not gentle on my bones

I may be home

But I've never felt so alone

Uncertainty, ironically it's the only thing I'm sure of

Can't see the forest for the trees

Tell me there's a way out

Tell me there's a way out

Cast my ashes and all my devotions

Let me lie with the ocean's emotions

'Cause I can't keep up with all the commotion

Let me sink deep

Maybe then I'll be free

But I know, even though it hurts

You can't put a timer on growing pains

And even though it might not show

I'll come out stronger than before

May, she's tough and unwavering

Every spring she'll be waiting for me
