Crashed Around

If you don’t catch me
I know the ocean will.
I trust her way more
than your defensive skills.

So kick this wide and kick it long.
I hope they get a good mark.
If I had left this all to you,
we’d still be in the dark.

Lost and overwhelmed
by everything we hold dear -
that crashed around our hearts
and drowned us in our fear.
