Elemental

Moving at a thousand miles an hour,
Everything’s changing too much.
Just for a little while, let me be still with you,
Feel the heartbeat of you, and then I will go on.

Let me lie quietly in your arms.
So worn out from running,
But I can’t move on.

Waves crashing on unfamiliar shores
I buckle with the breaking waves.
Just for a little while, let me be still with you,
Feel the heartbeat of you, and then I will swim on.

Can we drift here for a while?
Too tired to keep swiming,
Not ready yet to drown.

Elemental, all these changes that I fear.
Elemental, all these things that I hold dear.
Elemental, all the demons that I feed.
Elemental, everything I think I need.

Flying at the speed of light,
The earth is spinning too fast.
Just for a little while, let me be still with you,
Feel the heartbeat of you, and then I will fly on.

Just want to float with you.
Broken wings can't fly,
And I'm afraid to fall.

Flames of doubt and disillusion,
Are licking at my resolve.
Just for a little while, let me be still with you,
Feel the heartbeat of you, and then I will burn up.

Want to smoulder in your fire.
Don’t want to burn in flames,
Don’t want to turn to ash.
