letra de sail away - anna pest

i am staring at my palms again
i’ve never felt so powerless
a stirring in my core
trailing fingers down my arms again
a touch of ice at the back of my neck
and i feel nothing more

i can’t set myself aright
stumbling blindly through the night
and your empty words do nothing
they won’t ease my plight
benevolence to spite
verdancy to blight
my anchors weigh tonight
set sail into the night

i need to sail away
i will turn my bow against the tides
make my home in any fleeting dream
where i might wash ashore
i need to sail away
i will greet the day with eager eyes
show me something i have never seen
for i yearn for something more
i yearn for something more
i’ll look them all in the eye
and i’ll tell them all that i’m fine
‘cause they don’t need to know
that i’ve lost my way again
the air is warm tonight
and the tides will set me right
so dry your eyes
and on the other side
i’ll see your face again

i am staring at my hands again
stricken with an emptiness
i’ve never felt before
running fingers through the sands again
i slip away into the darkness
and know nothing more

my path’s led me astray
meandering idly through the day
and your empty words do nothing
they won’t ease my pain
debts i can’t repay
words i can’t unsay
my anchors all aweigh
weigh anchor, sail away
and when the night is long
sinking that much faster
it’s hard to see the light at the end
but as i sailed alone
the waking world around me
it stole my breath
i feel alive again
