Collecting Anchors

from Collecting Anchors by Shannon Murray

lyrics

Here I am collecting anchors/tethered to the places I most fear/and this feeling is akin to drowning/and I don’t know if I want out of here but i’ve got to get out of here/Nobody nobody ever asked me, nobody nobody ever did, oh oh no nobody nobody ever asked me if I could open up wide, open up wide and feel like this/I don’t want to feel like this/Your voice inside my head it’s pounding/I can’t seem to think of anyone but you/I’ve grown accustomed to being alone in my head/but I’d rather be in there with you/Nobody nobody ever asked me, nobody nobody ever did, oh oh no nobody nobody ever asked me if I could open up wide, open up wide and feel like this/I don’t want to feel like this/’cause every time you’re getting too close/you’re too close/oh there i go there I go I push you away/I’d offer up to you this heart dear/if it also wasn’t screaming no fucking way/don’t you come near me, I’m so far from ok/I am so far from ok/Nobody nobody ever asked me, nobody nobody ever did, oh oh no nobody nobody ever asked me if I could open up wide, open up wide and feel like this/I don’t want to feel like this/Here I am collecting anchors/tethered to the places I most fear.
