Shipwrecked

I’m stuck between two worlds
My world is dying
I won’t let myself listen to panic
Let me take my last breath in peace
Everything, nothing, leave me alone
Let me see my world is dying

I cast away my heart
To be shipwrecked
Let it be lonely

You are stuck between two worlds
My world is thriving
Don’t let them listen to the lies
Two mothers, two fathers
Always, never, I won’t let you perish
Make me see why your world is dying

I cast away my soul
To be shipwrecked
Let it be empty

We’re stuck between two worlds
Neither of us can stop crying
I don’t want to feel this way anymore
What have you destined us to
Confused, bruised, let me heal
Set me free so I no longer feel

I cast away my mind
To be shipwrecked
Let it be thirsty
