The tide's receding
Did you make it?
~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~~~
That breathing sine wave
~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~
So close you can feel it in your lungs
~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~
~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~
~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~ ~~~~ ~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~
A moat so shallow,
~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~
Did you make it?
The glimmer of new only lasts as long as that of dew
Stack more to the teetering tower,
let someone hold you
~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~
~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~~
Take that time to find your feet
~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~
~~~~~~~ ~~ ~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~
Did you make it?
~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~
~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~
~~~ ~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~
do they mean less than the ones that are filled with suns and shallows
~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~
~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~
does it ever end?
~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~
Do you feel weary? Feel the push and pull
~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~
Don’t let them make you,
Clawing back the broken for the right remake it?
~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~
Make it from the old, from a time before sand was made to think
Make it slower
Make it feel
Make it balanced, understand, the storm in you was there to give rise to those who can’t be silenced
you’ll wander and wonder
~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~
there?
