Treading

by Mokita

Music : Mokita/Melissa Fuller
Looking backwards, all my patterns
I can trace like the stars in space
But in the moment, I keep hoping
Something's gonna change, but I don't ever change
Been waiting on a different life
But it's not enough to just survive
I'm tired of barely getting by~
 
Treading water, I've been far away
Trying harder, I've been trying to stay
Above the waves, before they crash
I hear you calling and, I'm trying to get back
Treading water, I've been searching all night
But you're nowhere in sight
It's too dark and I can't see
Won't you shine a little light for me
Shine a little light for me, emmm, emmm, emmm
 
Am I getting closer, or am I drifting further
It's a mystery, or so it seems to be
Is this what everyone feels like
When they start thinking about life? Or is it just me
 
The question years sure take their time
Still waiting on an answer I
Can anchor to instead of getting by
Treading water, I've been far away
Trying harder, I've been trying to stay
Above the waves, before they crash
I hear you calling and, I'm trying to get back
Treading water, I've been searching all night
But you're nowhere in sight
It's too dark and I can't see
Won't you shine a little light for me
Shine a little light for me, emmm, emmm, emmm
