I fell in love with my broken spirit

I tried to learn how to fly with broken wings

I tried to sing with a broken beak

But, I am just another lonely bird adrift on this open sea



I don’t need nobody

I don’t need nothing

I can get by on my own

At least, that’s what I used to believe

But, in the midst of the terrible waves

I felt so lost

I felt so small

I felt so lost

I felt so small in this terrible and unending sea



I’ve lost the spirit that once gave me hope

I’ve come to claim control over this ever drifting vessel

I’ve come to pray for a brand new life

One in which I can breathe out here on this open and terrible sea



I have seen sons and daughters both sold and spoken for

Greed and corruption all for a token

Bloodied and broken, but what’s more

Is how holy they were before their innocence was stolen



I don’t need nobody

I don’t need nothing

I can get by on my own

At least, that’s what I used to believe

But, in the midst of the terrible waves

I felt so lost

I felt so small

I felt so lost

I felt so small in this terrible and unending sea



I have unending questions to whose answers I have not yet found

I am as lost as boat out on the sea

But, I have hope that in due time all will be found well

That in due time all will be found

But for now, I am as lost as a boat on a terrible sea
