The tide's receding

Did you make it?

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

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

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

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

Did we make it?


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

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

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

Your thoughts so deep they might pull you under

Did you make it?


The glimmer of new only lasts as long as that of dew

Stack more to the teetering tower,

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

Dig your heels deep

Let their hands trace the words on your back

Take that time to find your feet

Did you make it?


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

Did you make it?


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

Do you even mind?

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

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

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


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

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

Don’t let them make you,

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

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


Make it from the old, from a time before sand was made to think

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

Make it feel

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


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

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

~~~~~~
