Anchor
Unveiling the Depths of Longing: Birds of Tokyo's 'Anchor'
Lyrics
We stayed afloat for just a while
We managed to stay afloat temporarily.
We dared to swim alone
We took the risk of navigating our own path.
Dark water left your sinking heart to drown
The dark and difficult circumstances caused your heart to sink and struggle.
I know it's much too late to try
It's too late to attempt anything now.
You're never coming home
You will not return home.
When the tide came in you left without a sound
You left silently when the challenging times arrived.
We don't say, what we should say
We avoid expressing what needs to be said.
We get lost beyond the answer we find loneliness
We become lost in the face of loneliness, seeking answers.
We pretend but in the end
We feign emotions, but ultimately...
We get lost beyond the answer we find loneliness
We become lost in the face of loneliness, seeking answers.
I never thought to hold you
I never considered holding onto you.
I never thought that you might need an anchor
I never thought that you might need someone to anchor you.
I never thought I'd lose you
I never anticipated losing you.
I never thought that you might need an anchor
I never thought that you might need an anchor.
I've seen your face so many times
I've seen your face numerous times.
You've stood in front of me
You were physically present, but...
It was all so real
Reality was vivid, yet challenging to comprehend.
It was all so hard to see
It was hard to see and understand everything.
I'm chasing ghosts and alibis
I'm pursuing elusive memories and excuses.
Who speak so quietly
Ghosts and alibis speak softly and enigmatically.
I can almost hear you say
I can almost hear you telling me...
Don't cry for me
Not to cry for you.
We don't say, what we should say
We avoid expressing what needs to be said.
We get lost beyond the answer, we find loneliness
We become lost in the face of loneliness, seeking answers.
We pretend but in the end
We feign emotions, but ultimately...
We get lost beyond the answer, we find loneliness
We become lost in the face of loneliness, seeking answers.
I never thought to hold you
I never considered holding onto you.
I never thought that you might need an anchor
I never thought that you might need someone to anchor you.
I never thought I'd lose you
I never anticipated losing you.
I never thought that you might need an anchor
I never thought that you might need an anchor.
Now this is all on me
Now the responsibility lies entirely with me.
Take my apology
Accept my apology.
I never though it would end
I never thought it would end this way.
Like it did here
The ending was unforeseen and challenging.
Now this is all on me
Now the responsibility lies entirely with me.
Take apology
Accept my apology.
It's all on me
It's solely my responsibility.
This is all on me
This burden is entirely mine.
I never thought to hold you
I never considered holding onto you.
I never thought that you might need an anchor
I never thought that you might need someone to anchor you.
(Need an anchor)
(You might need an anchor)
I never thought I'd lose you
I never anticipated losing you.
I never thought that you might need an anchor
I never thought that you might need an anchor.
(Need an anchor)
(You might need an anchor)
(Never thought you'd need an anchor)
(I never thought you'd need an anchor)
(Never thought you'd need an anchor)
-(Never thought you'd need an anchor)
-(Never thought you'd need an anchor)
