[Verse 1]
These winds are so violent
They push, and they pull
It's hard not to get swept away
This world is so restless
It's spinning circles
And leaving me in its wake

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Rein me in when I run astray
Your heavy chains, a warm embrace
Forces work to cause these rifts
Break this bond that we have built
Don't ever let them
I'd ride it every time with you

[Chorus]
You're my anchor
When I'm driftin', driftin' away
When there's no life line around
I've got you to hold me down
Against the elements ignore the perfect storm
I'm not going anywhere with you as my anchor

[Verse 2]
Such turbulent waters
The balance upset
Composure is lost again
I start to wander too close to the edge
Is this gap just too large to bridge?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Rein me in when I run astray
Your heavy chains, a warm embrace
Forces work to separate
Break these bonds that we have made
Don't ever let them
I'd ride it every time with you

[Chorus]
You're my anchor
When I'm driftin', driftin' away
When there's no life line around
I've got you to hold me down
Against the elements ignore the perfect storm
I'm not going anywhere with you as my anchor

[Bridge]
Is this tide too strong to shake?
Will the undertow pull me away?
Is it just a matter of time until one of us gets lost?

[Chorus]
You're my anchor
When I'm driftin', driftin' away
When there's no life line around
I've got you to hold me down
Against the elements ignore the perfect storm
I'm not going anywhere with you as my anchor
