water damage - Arlie

Forgot to empty out your pockets when you jumped into the pool

And even in the freezing water it was hard to keep your cool

How will you spend that extra moment when you’re waiting for your ride?

When there’s a silence in the room, how will you occupy your mind?

Can’t take the pain of separation any longer

Withdrawal symptoms made your mother call a doctor

Feels like the longest that you’ve ever gone without it in your hand

They just don’t understand

Feels like you woke up from a coma and you’re finally in control

You held your breath for half a decade and you finally let it go

Ooo, you never saw yourself as somebody to swim against the stream

But since you lost it, curiosity’s been bursting at the seams

Collecting phrases out of strangers' conversations

Pick up the pieces out of peoples situations

You find an overwhelming sense of fascination with it all

As you’re learning to crawl
