Anchor Lyrics

You found me broken and abandoned

And built me up to be your king

I swore that I'd never let you down

But I made another promise I couldn't keep

I never said that I was perfect

Nor did I claim to be complete...ly there in terms of sanity

But I tried my best to be just that, shot for the moon and I fell flat

And now I've only got myself to blame

I've lost sight of the port of call

I can't feel my fingers at all

It's dark and it's cold and I'm scared to keep pressing on

I'm only beside myself

Disturbed and too proud to get help

Too stubborn a person to be who I need to be

We hit a rough patch… it's been two weeks ago to the day

We faced down death and disease, and I still thought we'd be okay

But the stress got to us both and though you accidentally hurt me,

My inflexibility and weak fragility 'ventually pushed you away

I've lost sight of the port of call

I can't feel my fingers at all

It's dark and it's cold and I'm scared to keep pressing on

I'm only beside myself

Disturbed and too proud to get help

Too stubborn a person to be who I need to be

I know that I should be uplifting

But when I try, well, something's missing

And I'm positively drifting out to sea

Without an anchor to keep me grounded

How can I be happy?

I've lost sight of the port of call

I can't feel my fingers at all

It's dark and it's cold and I'm scared to keep pressing on

I'm only beside myself

Disturbed and too proud to get help

Too stubborn a person to be who I need to be

I know that I should be uplifting

But when I try, well, something's missing

And I'm positively drifting out to sea

Without an anchor to keep me grounded

How can I be happy?

Without your anchor to keep me grounded

How can I be happy?
