lyrics

And I can't admit I love you
I don't think I know the words
As graceful as hair in water
The arch, the curve
And I have kept this buried beneath me
Under floorboards and behind walls
And I could write it down in lead here
It will fade, after all

Safe and soundless
We slide against the page
Scared and motionless
Nothing to lose
Nothing to gain
There is safety in escaping
A strike of fear for me to stay
And I can hear you whisper
In the waves

We are little more than a series of letters
We're unmarked
We're unsent
We are neverminds, it doesn't matter
We're the spirits the salt has bent
Left to tangle across the other
And away from what we want
Content to simply scatter
Have we forgotten where to start?

Safe and soundless
We slide against the page
Scared and motionless
Nothing to lose
Nothing to gain
There is safety in escaping
A strike of fear for me to stay
And I can hear you whisper
In the waves
