Witness Yesterdays Wake set sail we're leaving the harbor now christen the ship let the city slip from the starboard bow remember when the waves were only waist deep? when the only thing we knew about pain was scraped knees? when we would still walk where the shells were in shards, if it meant that we could find that starfish before dark but, as the comfort grows we become the flow and the ebb and tide that swept our lives into the undertow and while i'm foolish for building sandcastles where the waves break you fought the current and focused on yesterday's wake you vacated our oasis on the premise that our complicated promises were tarnished by the present and i fear the tempest hasn't left your lips yet but i love you that's why i'm staying anchored to this shipwreck so should the water ever rise above our collarbones i'll be close by, closed eyes, cause i'm not alone i'll never let the waters rise above our collarbones open up your eyes, baby doll, cause you're not alone sitting on a suitcase, knees to elbows, hands to face, like "damn, it's damp today" and the transits late again i make friends with the night sky calling each star on it's white lies but, from the sand i sit wondering where the candlelit nights that used to be life decided to abandon ship i won't stand for it, i can't handle it been waiting for a little bit of wind since the anchor slipped i've got five fingers clinging to the driftwood looking for riptide that you travel on but safe harbors and stagnant ponds couldn't make hope float if the passion's gone |
