Lifeboat
I don't mention whirlpools, yet I feel whirlpools are implied

Meet me where you go
When the world gets too loud
There I'll be, you know
Trying not to look proud
Yes I've got the map to your quietest places
But that doesn't mean I'm freed from your stormiest faces
.
You can shake, you can rattle and roll
I can take it, I'll swallow it whole
Hold me close like a lifeboat
Let me feel stronger than I am
.
Meet me where I go
When I feel all alone
Be a shoulder, but
Don't let me lean too long
I don't want to be like this, no not even with you
In the game of pain I always gotta gotta gotta gotta lose
.
You can shake, you can rattle and roll
I can take it, I'll swallow it whole
Hold me close like a lifeboat
Let me feel stronger than I am
In the depths of this violent sea
Don't you dare leave any space for me
I'll float like a lifeboat
While that current's pulling me
Down
.
Treading water is exhausting
But it's so much better than sinking
And dry land is not an option
So cry me a river
I know you'll deliver
.
You can shake, you can rattle and roll
I can take it, I'll swallow it whole
Hold me close like a lifeboat
Let me feel stronger than I am
In the depths of this violent sea
Don't you dare leave any space for me
I'll float like a lifeboat
And be stronger
Than I am
