lyrics

There's a current in these tides
It comes in and rips us wide
Pulls us out into a sea of emotion

The wind is high the sails are full
I try not to feel your pull
There's no future here but who needs devotion

Why can't I throw you
Like you throw me
Unwanted Anchor
Why am I hanging on

Yesterday we avoided eyes
I watched your back as you grabbed at the lines
No horizon means nothing yet to return to

But today I catch your gaze in mine
A denial of diminishing time
I look away so your eyes cannot burn through
Why can't I throw you
Like you throw me
Unwanted Anchor
Why am I hanging on

So throw me aft and make your way
back to your past your different day
and I, like always, won't breath a word

Why can't I throw you
Like you throw me
Unwanted Anchor
Why am I hanging on
Why do you linger on
