Beloved

A line drawn in the sand
And we both know
I'm not about to bury myself
Sinking in my footsteps
But not coming up for air
A firm foundation of beating hearts
Is blistering enough on the surface
Closing in and holding out my breath
Hoping to mend the wounds
Opened by years of digging out
We fight fire with fire
And you'll run back to your
Circles of friends
They won't help you now
We drew a line in the sand
And this time it's now or never
Go ahead and burn your bridges
But only if you can swim
