ankle deep

in Your ocean, i'm ankle deep.
i feel the waves crashing on my feet.
it's like i know where i need to be,
but i can't figure out, i can't figure out

just how much air i will need to breathe
when Your tide rushes over me.
there's only one way to figure out.
will You let me drown? will You let me drown?

this is my desire:
consume me like a fire.
'cause i just want something beautiful
to touch me. i know that i'm in reach
'cause i am down on my knees
waiting for something beautiful.

and the water is rising quick,
and for years i was scared of it.
we can't be sure when it will subside,
so i won't leave Your side. i can't leave Your side.

this is my desire:
consume me like a fire.
'cause i just want something beautiful
to touch me. i know that i'm in reach
'cause i am down on my knees
waiting for something beautiful

in a daydream,
i couldn't live like this.
i wouldn't stop until i've found
something beautiful.
when i wake up,
and all i want i have,
You know it's still not what i need.
something beautiful.

this is my desire:
consume me like a fire.
'cause i just want something beautiful
to touch me. i know that i'm in reach
cause i am down on my knees
waiting for something beautiful.
