Above the water

Some days everything just goes to my head.

I lay there, my worries making waves over me. I’m like paralyzed.

I stretch out my head, for oxygen, for life. I try to drown out the worries that drown me, with music. Replace my feelings with bass.

You say that you walk with us. You walk on the water that drowns me.

But even when it feels hopeless, I still need you, Lord.

I have to replace my feelings with you. I have to feel you in my bones, my head, in my heart.
