Private Hurricane

I saw you drowning in a paper cup
And I just watched as you went down
You didn't seem to know which way was up
You just watched the world go around

The water swirled and it tugged at your feet
Your little private hurricane
And as you teetered on the edge of defeat
I could almost hear you calling my name

Oh, did you believe what I said
That I'm never gonna see you again
Don't let me follow you into this disease
I won't let you win

I could have reached a hand to carry you out
I could have jumped in on my own
But if you're gonna let yourself fall down
You'll be going to the bottom alone

This ship is sinking and there's no way out
You are the captain, I guess that you're trapped in, but I
I don't know you, I don't owe you anything
