The Guard

Hold on you’re becoming a man now
That’s what they tell me before I run

Don’t blame me
A boat needs an anchor
And mine's come undone
It was being young for so long

I’ll let my guard down
It won’t last long

Stay there
I’ll move you slowly
I remember the waves
You said I should stay
Before I ran

But don’t blame me
I can’t tread water
You felt like the ocean
The rain, the fire in me

I’ll meet you there
Where the water’s wine
Where life is long
So long that I won’t live a lie
In fear of the mind
The red in the sky
At dawn

I’ll let my guard down
It won’t last long
Breath
Dive in
With me
