John H Maloney - Undertow

What can I do
To get through
To who I used to be
And sound the all clear
And steer away
From the cacophony
I don't want to waste another moment
Spending my life this way
What can I do
To break through this disarray

I couldn't have known
It was just so long ago
And although I've grown
I'm still caught up in the undertow

The circle still turns
As it burns
Another piece of me
But I'm starting to learn
To turn my back
On the absurdity
Once upon a time there was a reason
For this anxiety
But that time is done
I can't let it keep on haunting me

It's time I move on
Though I'm not sure where I might go
Let bygones be gone
And escape this undertow

It's so hard to leave it, but I know that's what I've got to do
To dig myself out from under my past
It's all so familiar, but it's time that I try something new
Cause if I stay there's no way to say how long I will last

What can I do
To get through
To who I used to be
And sound the all clear
And steer away
From the cacophony
Once upon a time there was a reason
For this anxiety
But that time is done
I can't let it keep on haunting me

I couldn't have known
It was just so long ago
And although I've grown
I'm still caught up in the undertow
It's time I move on
Though I'm not sure where I might go
Let bygones be gone
And escape this undertow
