"Anchor" lyrics

"Anchor"

Through churning waters and midnight skies
This ship has sailed one too many times
To reach a land, reach a land of dreams
Where no sole nor soul has set
Where footprints leave no name
Time and time again, time and time again this attempt has failed

You were my anchor
You were my anchor
And I am chained to everything I tried to leave behind

I am chained to everything I tried to leave behind
I am chained to everything I tried to leave behind

Through heartfelt waters and crystal skies
We won't prevail
Time and time again this ship has sailed
And time and time again this attempt has failed
My attempts have failed

You were my anchor
You were my anchor

These eyes, they long for light
So I can see the truth that lies
You always told me this ship would never sail
But I will be washed away
With all my strength I'll blow this sail
With all my strength I'll wash away
With all my strength I'll wash away
These eyes, they long for light
So I can see the truth that lies
I will be washed away
