The tide's rising
Did you make it?
Do you hear it in the distance
~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~
Every drop that’s ever been
So close you can feel it in your lungs
Did we make it?
~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~
~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~ ~~~~ ~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~
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
Dig your heels deep
Let their hands trace the words on your back
Take that time to find your feet
Did you make it?
Nothing is a mistake. There’s no win and no fail. There is only make.
Did you make it?
Has it all been mined? Did that rush last this time
~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~
~~~ ~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~
~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~~~
We should make it!
~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~
Pulling yourself from the ashes again and again
does it ever end?
Did you make it?
Do you feel weary? Feel the push and pull
the fight and flight
Don’t let them make you,
Clawing back the broken for the right remake it?
Did you all make it?
~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~ ~~~~~
~~~~ ~~ ~~~~~~
Make it feel
~~~~ ~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~ ~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~~~~~
you’ll wander and wonder
Did you make it
there?
I’m hopeful
