Wading

You call with mixed signals
Like a broken lighthouse
I’m not sure whether to stay on the shore
Or to wade into the deep
I need a truthful answer
Like the sirens who tempted Odysseus
You need to call to me steadily
And bring me in hypnotically
I need to know if you love me
So I can wade into the deep
The lightning hits the ground
And the thunder is here now
The waters call to me restlessly
But I’m waiting on you
I need to know if you’ll save me
When I’m drowning
To death at sea
I need to know that you’ll save me
To wade into the deep
