Sea Change Lyrics

I keep my curtains closed in the morning
Keep that light on the other side
My room's a jungle and my mind's too full
To let the light inside

There's ants out on the kitchen floor
There's a storm inside my head
It's gonna take a sea change to clear that sand
And get me out of bed

Spread my wings so I could fly above
But I don't know how

So honey put your arms around me
Hold me like you do your secrets
Safe underneath that blanket
Cover up my pain runs deep as the ocean
Heavy as a snowing winter
Never gonna find arms strong enough to hold all that

I got a shot for every setback
A boat to sail me through my fears
But the largest steamer just ain't so strong
To get me out of here

Well I guess that's the thing about quicksand
You better try to calm on down
'Cause the more you fight back
Yeah the more you combat the more you drown

Close my eyes so I could shed a tear
But I don't know how

So honey put your arms around me
Hold me like you do your secrets
Safe underneath that blanket
Cover up my pain runs deep as the ocean
Heavy as a snowing winter
Never gonna find arms strong enough to hold all that

I pull the covers close, but still the screaming never stops
I blow the candles out, but still the fear it never fades
I close the door, turn out the lights
Still there's nowhere that is safe

So honey put your arms around me
Hold me like you do your secrets
Safe underneath that blanket
Cover up my pain runs deep as the ocean
Heavy as a snowing winter
Never gonna find arms strong enough to hold all that

I keep my curtains closed in the morning
But there's light on the other side
