Seaglass

lyrics

I'm always last to leave,
The landmarks lead me,
Breathe,

I was carried on the sea,
My shipwrecked body on the beach,

The snow that covers her,
It lays upon me,
For days I laid there still,
Where she forgot me,

On my back,
The dead light raining down upon me,
One hundred thousand years old now,
But they still haunt me,

I am lifting me up,
Staring straight in your eyes,

But don't take your eyes of my eyes,
But don't take your eyes of my eyes,

And your landmarks are dim,
Darkening in the sunlight,

But don't take your eyes of my eyes,
But don't take your eyes of my eyes,

Constellations of ink,
Speckled neatly on ice,

But don't take your eyes of my eyes,
But don't take your eyes of my eyes,

Beautifully orbiting,
Sister planets of seaglass green,

But don't take your eyes of my eyes,
But don't take your eyes of my eyes,

You can't be where I've been,
Without seeing what I am seeing,

But don't take your eyes of my eyes,
But don't take your eyes of mine,

Take a breath,
Close your eyes,
Hold it in,
And then be,
With,
Me.
