Anchor Holding the Storm

Intro

Oh oh

Steady now

Deep breath

Verse 1

Midnight rolls across the plastic dash

Twelve telephones all ringing for the cash

Paper thin promises

Torn seams on silk shirts

Pre-Chorus

She wants a coat

She wants a dream

She needs the stage

Chorus

Keeping the pace is a heavy load

Down a jagged road

Down a jagged road

Spinning the plates till the glass might crack

Never look back

Never look back

I am the anchor holding the storm

I am the anchor holding the storm

Verse 2

Corner light flickering a yellow warning sign

Seven different voices arguing for more time

Balance the ledger

Bitter tea in china cups

Pre-Chorus

She wants a coat

She wants a dream

She needs the stage

Chorus

Keeping the pace is a heavy load

Down a jagged road

Down a jagged road

Spinning the plates till the glass might crack

Never look back

Never look back

I am the anchor holding the storm

I am the anchor holding the storm

Bridge

Soft velvet eyes staring through the glass

Minutes turn to hours watching others pass

Tell her it is fine

Tell her it is fair

Tell her it is yours

Chorus

Keeping the pace is a heavy load

Down a jagged road

Down a jagged road

Spinning the plates till the glass might crack

Never look back

Never look back

I am the anchor holding the storm

I am the anchor holding the storm
