Lyrics
Time shows that stillness stays
Long after a divine wind shakes the trees
And the sea sways in the great south bay
The tides recede, but fallen branches remain
You gave me a gift with your name engraved
To ensure I'm left to live with the shame
Of knowing I'll never reciprocate
But I sure tried my best
Lest you liken me to a razor
Covered in rust
Stained red with the remnants of your trust
The powerlines gave but the lights still remain
On and on and on
You follow me like dust
You cover everything
I see you everywhere
And in the storm
I stepped outside
A spiteful attempt to collect every twig
Nowadays I live my life in a shell
A paranoid conch with stories to tell
Poking an eye out of my cell
Where I’ve been locked away
This mollusk is keen to someday soon
Return to a life once free from doom
And when I wash up on the shore
I’ll stare into the eye of the storm
You follow me like dust
You cover everything
I see you everywhere
You follow me like dust
You cover everything
You’re gone with one faint gust
Give yourself away
Despite static on phone lines
We’ve been bruised but we get by
I’m not waiting for our time
Cause my conscience is clean
