The tide's receding

Did you make it?

Do you hear it in the distance

That breathing sine wave

~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~

~~ ~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~

~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~


Do you know it’s safe

That this castle is really just a type of prison held low

A moat so shallow,

Your thoughts so deep they might pull you under

Did you make it?


~~~ ~~~~~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~ ~~~

~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~

~~~ ~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~

~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~

Let their hands trace the words on your back

Take that time to find your feet

Did you make it?


~~~~~~~ ~~ ~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~

~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~


~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~

Do you even mind?

~~~ ~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~

do they mean less than the ones that are filled with suns and shallows

~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~


Do you understand it? Do the whispers even matter anymore? Love over blood, over rules, over certainty

~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~

~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~~

~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~


Do you feel weary? Feel the push and pull

~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~

~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~

Clawing back the broken for the right remake it?

Did you all make it?


~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~ ~~~~~

~~~~ ~~ ~~~~~~

~~~~ ~~ ~~~~

Make it balanced, understand, the storm in you was there to give rise to those who can’t be silenced


~~~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~

Did you make it

~~~~~~

I’m hopeful
