Sitting With a Stranger

sitting with a stranger
just about to lose my mind
when you decide
the times not right
and leave me way behind
sitting with a warrior
taking all the punches thrown
a shallow grave is made for you
if you're gonna take on the world on your own

if this love is our home
then why am i always trying to break down the walls
and as long as there are places in your mind
im not allowed to go

ill be sitting with a stranger
trying to keep it together
swimming around you
holding my breath
waiting for a change in the weather
put up a fight
i cant scream into the dark
or be sitting with a stranger
my whole life through
when i could be with you

love
in a desert
will always be wondering whats its missing out on
and peace
in infested waters
can never make itself at home
so c'mon
