Waves don’t ask where you’ve been They just pull you slowly in Sunlight dancing off the glass Let the hours slowly pass No one asking, no one sees What I carry underneath Postcard smile, easy tone But I’m never really home Every step along the shore Feels like something I’ve done before Something quiet pulls me down Even here I start to drown Sitting on the beach, sipping something sweet Let the world just drift away from me Sun is high, nothing underneath Feels like I could finally leave Checking out, let it fade Every choice I never made Checking out, slipping through Nothing left for me to prove Footprints vanish in the sand Like I never took a stand Every call I didn’t take Every promise left to break You’d think peace would settle in But it hums beneath my skin Even here it follows close Like a ghost I almost chose There’s a line I almost crossed There’s a weight I never lost Sitting on the beach, sipping something sweet Let the world just drift away from me Sun is high, nothing underneath Feels like I could finally leave Checking out, let it fade Every choice I never made Checking out, slipping through Nothing left for me to prove No alarms, no sudden sound Just the quiet pulling down No big moment, no display Just the thought that I could stay… away Just a second Just a breath Just a line Nothing left Sitting on the beach, sipping something sweet Let the world just drift away from me Sun is high, nothing underneath Feels like I could finally leave Checking out, no return Watch the horizon start to burn Checking out, slipping through Nothing left to hold me to
