EMERGENCY
Words and Music by Drew Lanius
Arrangement by Drew Lanius and Elton Clifton
I’m trying hard to understand
I’m not prepared to let this drift away
Safety has it’s place, but if you don’t mind
I would like to try
To take what fills my eyes
And put it right between my hands and never let it go
But I’m still not sure of the master plan
‘Cause you… You can take things either way
You’re up and down
Your fluidity rushes over me
And I’m drowning in a way that doesn’t scream
Emergency
What is it that carries you away
And why do you go there and where
‘Cause I forgot to ask is it
And could I go there too
Time is on your side not mine
Or so it seems to me
This distance in between is greater
Than the greatest need in me
And you… You can take things either way
You’re up and down
Your fluidity rushes over me
And I’m drowning in a way that doesn’t scream
Emergency
