Floodlit

Wouldn't I stand over the ocean Wouldn't I offer my soul Wouldn't I hold out for devotion To come back and take control And I'd show you just what it is to be me In love completely Only I cannot breathe Flooded out by emotion I'm sheltered and bestowed As the circumstances surround us now leave not one porous stone Wouldn't I stand over the ocean Wouldn't I drown my soul In the tide of your own tongue And swallow you up whole And the numbness that gripped me senseless When I first tasted your kiss Has all but still remained And it might rise slowly But its always known that it overflows And it subsides only when you let me go And if I sink slowly underneath by the weight It would only show that she sank before And the lights die slowly When you let me go in a darkened room And it will shine only when I wake next to you When and if I'm blinded And if I came to see It would only show what you let me show And I owe my life to this And I owe my life to you And I want you to know And I want you to know I believe in you Oh can you say what you can't deny
