"Anchor" lyrics

"Anchor"

I don't wanna think about
The way I loved you so
I wanna be whole
Floating on an icy sea
I thought of something warm
I thought of your love
When we left the harbor
I was certain of my path
There's no turning back
Now I long for something that
Could stop me in my tracks
An anchor to cast

And all the things I never said
Are ringing in my head again
I tried to write 'em down
But those are letters that could never find their end

Something in the air was different
When I woke that day
What I couldn't say
I was softly bracing when
I finally felt the waves
Beginning to change
When the skies turned darker and
The water took control
There was nowhere to go
Voyage of a hundred men
And no one's going home
There's no going home

And all the things they never said
Are ringing in their heads again
They tried to write 'em down
But those are letters that could never end
The waves are crashing in
The bow is sinking to oblivion
And as I gave in to the sound
I thought I heard you calling out
My name, name, name, name
Name, name, name, name
Name, name, name, name, name
Name, yeah
