Adrift mp3

All her clothes don't fit her drawers
She says it's no problem I use the floor
She keeps buying more

When her stray cat ran away
She said but I loved it why didn't it stay
That was her mistake

She gave a tug to her weightless anchor
Letting it act as her navigator
But when she got there It looked just like here
So she kept on for where She wouldn't feel adrift

She wouldn't say she quit
But she has a habit of jumping ship
As she starts to tip

When she thinks that she might drown
She stops flailing and simply shuts down
Till she gets turned around by

Giving a tug to her weightless anchor
She let it act as her navigator
But nowhere between
Homesick and sick of home
On her map could be seen
So she remained adrift

When she left her cat behind
She said but you'll take it and it will be fine
It's her favorite line and

If she's not homesick She's sick of home
And she tries to fix it By moving on
But then when she gets there
It looks like here so she
Starts again and finds herself
If she's not homesick she's sick of home
And she tries to fix it by moving on
But then when she gets there

It looks like here so she
Starts again and finds herself adrift
