Slipping, slipping, slipping away
I can tell you're not content and you don't want to tell me that
You're slipping, slipping, slipping away
Like a bud that never bloomed
And now can't stand the heat of June
Little life you've lost your glow,
You just cry and no one knows
That love isn't your friend,
Your friends are gone,
but I say, it's okay, it's okay
Indigenous time before I drown and there's one more open seat, trust in me
Take my hand, there's a bigger world
I'll show you everything you wanna see, see, see,
Anything you wanna see
Drifting, drifting, drifting away
You can tell I'm not content, but bitten nails prove some relent
I'm drifting, drifting, drifting away
Like a tide under the moon, low inside and lilly tune
I thought that I would find your glow,
I just cry because I know
That love isn't your friend, and that friend is me
But you never noticed a friend
Indigenous time before I drown and there's one more open seat, trust in me
Take my hand, there's a bigger world,
Now I'll show you everything you wanna see, see, see,
Anything you wanna see,
Anything you wanna see.
Oh oh oh
Blue bird locked up inside of me,
I can't let you be free
Uh uh uh
So for now I'll keep you tucked away, with memories up in a tree
Hopelessly, defenseless, love has left us breathless
Tell me you're a liar, we will never win this
I chased away your demons,
You're always in the deep end,
There's a black hole in my heart,
and it won't stop!
So I'm slipping, I'm slipping, I'm slipping away
