Dark Water
There is a water so heavy
It rises up, dark, from the ocean
And arches up over the shoreline
And crashes down onto the sand
Ripping the boardwalk
From its foundations
Know that I, who have loved you
Climbed to the top of a cedar
And watched as the branches below me
Were sheared by the bodies of dolphins
The cars and the light poles
That were swept by the water
All the schools and the churches
The parking lot where I had met you
Where carried away from the city
And washed to the foot of the mountains
To where the ocean ran up against them
There is a water so heavy
It rises up, dark, from the ocean
Arches up over the shoreline
And crashes down onto the sand
Ripping the boardwalk
From its foundations
And the hospitals and piano bars
And the nursing homes and their denizens
And the body shoppes were washed away
And the discotheques all disappeared
It rises up, dark, from the ocean
And arches up over the shoreline
And crashes down onto the sand
Ripping the boardwalk
From its foundations
Know that I, who have loved you
Climbed to the top of a cedar
And watched as the branches below me
Were sheared by the bodies of dolphins
The cars and the light poles
That were swept by the water
All the schools and the churches
The parking lot where I had met you
Where carried away from the city
And washed to the foot of the mountains
To where the ocean ran up against them
There is a water so heavy
It rises up, dark, from the ocean
Arches up over the shoreline
And crashes down onto the sand
Ripping the boardwalk
From its foundations
And the hospitals and piano bars
And the nursing homes and their denizens
And the body shoppes were washed away
And the discotheques all disappeared
