When the rain is beating down on me
and trembles in the night
I’m a five away from packing in my gear

It’s a hurt of my extremities
A frost of fight or flight
I’m wide awake and slipping off again

I need a panacea
A new sensation
Help me out to the light of day

I need a sip of salutation
and a smile to come around
Find me sideways by the ripples in the sound

When I’m feeling down and dusted
and I’m burdened with unrest
There’s a beating and a needing in my chest

When the trust I built is rusted
Bought a boat despite the wreck
Know I’m better off as busted as my mess

I’m a problem
I’m a nightmare
I’m just two steps away from the edge

I’m uncertain
Don’t belong here
And I’m never gonna take a lie they said

I’m a solver
I’m a daydream
I’m a winner before the race and I’m a saint

I’m a banner
To all my failures
I’m salvation to my own ill banishment
