lyrics

Are the waves rising?
Is my anger not content?
With a sore evening.
And a dead housefly

Will I find a place?
Where the lake can’t see me too?
Where the sand buries
All the scorched driftwood

So I look outward
At a place across the sea
A new home for you
Far away from me

Where the snow falls down
All powdered and pristine
Before the mud showers
And the dead winter


All across the state
The sun is burning down
Hotter getting hotter till the swamplands bubble up
Ponce de Leon
Looked out across the strait
Convinced himself he saw martyrs trapped above the waves
Every time I talk
The tone is missing mark
Sinking always sinking till I cannot help but scream
There’s no going back
Too far to turn around
So silently I sit and hope someday to find an end
(Deep in the ocean the blue waves are swallowing me)

Is the sea rising?
Will it bury me in time?
While I count shipwrecks
And become sunsets

Can I feel your shape?
Does the light here reach you too?
Has it been too long?
Is the air tearing ?

So I plant flowers
But it doesn’t seem they’ve grown
All this dirt’s worthless
Now that I’ve left home

In a haze searching
Through grey days and sleepless nights
Waiting for something
But I don’t know what
