take me home

Take me home to the ocean where I belong I've been drowning in this sea Looking for the lighthouse by the beach I am just a young girl but not inside Because I see the world set on fire on the horizon every night I can't believe how deep the water's gotten lately Take me back to the ocean where I belong The sight alone just like a wave it swallows me I've been coming back for air but somehow I can't breathe I am just a vagrant girl but not inside Because I see myself at home just circling the ocean wide I can't believe how deep the water's gotten lately

You know what that means?

Gills are next on your "need to get" list. Blessed with seven- btw, you mix well with my meth injection.
