Anchor Songtext
von Satellites & Sirens

You said, "Open your eyes" and
I said, "I don′t like surprises"
You said, "Surprise, you're up to your knees
In the water and you don′t have a life-vest"
I know, I know, I know, but don't worry
'Cause I′ve got it figured out

You said, "Jump in the boat, man"
I said, "No, you reach your hand"
You said, "The storms that will come
Will be more than enough, and alone you cannot win"
You know, you know, you know without hope
You′ll only sink, not swim

And the current here is stronger now, than I remember
And I'm cryin′ for you to help
Please, save me

When I feel like I am driftin' away
Sinkin′ down, the sands are shiftin' today
I′m about to lose my way
You anchor, anchor me down


Lookin' out, the skies are turnin' to gray
All around, the tide is pullin′ away
Just about to lose my way
You anchor, anchor me down

You said, "Whatever happens
Don′t get caught in the rapids
Hold on, I'm over the edge
And I′m reachin' for help ′cause I'm caught in the deep end"
I know, I know, I know what you said
But I′m in over my head

You said, "I'm not alone here"
I said, "Throw me a rope and
I've had more than enough of the rain
And the cold and I wanna give up"
And I know, I know, I know without hope
I′ll only sink, not swim

And the current here is stronger now, than I remembered
And I′m cryin' for you to help
Please, save me

When I feel like I am driftin′ away
Sinkin' down, the sands are shiftin′ today
I'm about to lose my way
You anchor, anchor me down


Lookin′ out, the skies are turnin' to gray
All around, the tide is pullin' away
Just about to lose my way
You anchor, anchor me down

And the current here is stronger now, than I remember
When I cry for you to help
You save me

And the current here is stronger now, than I remember
And I′m cryin′ out for you to help
And you save me

When I feel like I am driftin' away
Sinkin′ down, the sands are shiftin' today
I′m about to lose my way
You anchor, anchor me down

Lookin' out, the skies are turnin′ to gray
All around, the tide is pullin' away
Just about to lose my way
You anchor, anchor me down
