Frozen Lake

(album: Star Potential - 2023)

I've been dreaming too much
I know I've been quiet, a little withdrawn
Patiently been waiting by the water
For something to pull me under
For too long

And it's so hard
To dive into the open
When you're anchored where you are
I'm trying, but I don't get far

I'm here standing on a frozen lake
Heart is heavy, but the ice won't break
Looking down, I can see my face
I just wish I could take her place
That's what happens when your feet get cold
You get used to doing what you're told
Looking down at what I can't control
Getting nowhere while I'm getting old
But I'm still standing
Frozen

I've been dreaming too much
Of how I would get over the hurdles in my path
Shamelessly I'd stand a little taller
Back my way out of a corner
On my own

And it's so hard
To dive into the open
When you're anchored where you are
I'm trying, but I don't get far

I'm here standing on a frozen lake
Heart is heavy, but the ice won't break
Looking down, I can see my face
I just wish I could take her place
That's what happens when your feet get cold
You get used to doing what you're told
Looking down at what I can't control
Getting nowhere while I'm getting old
But I'm still standing
Frozen

My eyes are clear, but my mind's a mess
One more step and I'm off the edge
But I'm gonna swim my way to heaven
You can't stop me

My eyes are clear, but my mind's a mess
One more step and I'm off the edge
But I'm gonna swim my way to heaven
Like nobody's watching
Like nobody's watching
You can't stop me
You can't stop me
