Tailspin


All the pressure
The pressure's overwhelming me
My heart is held in luxury
Kept up in a box

And it's sinking in
Sinking in the sea again
I'm frozen like a mannequin
Put out on display

For all it's yesterdays
Rising, falling, always calling
Stalling in a tailspin

It's cemented in
Cemented with my selfish past
Wondering how long it lasts
Until I mess it up again

It's sticking to the plate
Sticking as it complicates
Rushing now to penetrate
In the surface then away

For all it's yesterdays
Rising, falling, always calling
Stalling in a tailspin
