about

This song was written shortly before I began my internship over the summer. While I was excited to be doing something so high profile, I was nervous that I was being slid into a position that I did not actually want, and that that would indicate where I was going later in life. I was scared that I would be guided into a less than desirable life simply because I was naïve and unaware. The lyrics for this song came out of that fear.

lyrics

I've taken these steps, but I don't know if it's what I want.
Is this the direction I wish to take, or are my answers wrong?
And the more I look at the horizon, the more I realize how much time is gone.

I don't know if these choices I make are my own.
Do I have what it takes to stay afloat?
I'm adrift on a sinking boat.

I sit and think about it as the sun sets in the sky.
I'm still in my room as night comes round, but I still do not know why.
And as I look at the horizon, all I see is blue water and sky.

I don't know if these choices I make are my own.
Do I have what it takes to stay afloat?
I'm adrift on a sinking boat.

I don't know if these choices I make are my own.
Do I have what it takes to stay afloat?
I'm adrift on a sinking boat.
