Underwater
Waves folding you in
The last song of the land-gull
A goodnight kiss with the stream
We held hands at the shoreline
Trained our eyes on a star
You told an ancient story
A ship that drifted too far
No one told what happens
How despair can begin
Bleed for me a horizon
In your tear-damp skin
We never tired of waiting
All the time in the dry
Holding out forever
Listening for your cry
Underwater
Anchored bones to the bed
Secured puny guesses
Drowned what could not be said
This old head on my shoulders
Lives with you to this day
Replays over and over
Every manner and way
No one told what happens
How this hurt never ends
Forced down with the pressure
All we need in the bends
We never tired of waiting
Water pushing inside
Celebrate this closure
There alone in the tide
Underwater
Secrets kept from their eyes
Alone at last and forever
Littered shore with disguise
The moon dipped in horizon
Tears thicken the sea
And here’s your final moment
A lasting chance to be free
No one told what happens
How your voice will remain
Judgement never given
Endured the same
We never tired of waiting
Too late to walk away
Silence in the hospital
Different shades of grey
Underwater
The last words you will hear
Of how I’ll take you with me
And how I’ll always be near
We never tired of waiting
All the time in the dry
Underwater
Holding out forever
Waves folding you in
The last song of the land-gull
A goodnight kiss with the stream
We held hands at the shoreline
Trained our eyes on a star
You told an ancient story
A ship that drifted too far
No one told what happens
How despair can begin
Bleed for me a horizon
In your tear-damp skin
We never tired of waiting
All the time in the dry
Holding out forever
Listening for your cry
Underwater
Anchored bones to the bed
Secured puny guesses
Drowned what could not be said
This old head on my shoulders
Lives with you to this day
Replays over and over
Every manner and way
No one told what happens
How this hurt never ends
Forced down with the pressure
All we need in the bends
We never tired of waiting
Water pushing inside
Celebrate this closure
There alone in the tide
Underwater
Secrets kept from their eyes
Alone at last and forever
Littered shore with disguise
The moon dipped in horizon
Tears thicken the sea
And here’s your final moment
A lasting chance to be free
No one told what happens
How your voice will remain
Judgement never given
Endured the same
We never tired of waiting
Too late to walk away
Silence in the hospital
Different shades of grey
Underwater
The last words you will hear
Of how I’ll take you with me
And how I’ll always be near
We never tired of waiting
All the time in the dry
Underwater
Holding out forever
