Aaron Orpheus - Ash Creek

Carried Out to Sea

I try to bind the windows wide, but mostly I just sleep
Curl up and wait for cobalt waves to thunder down on me
The boats that shared the coastline lie buried in the deep
So I'll float there like a corpse 'til I'm carried out to sea

I need to hoard my breath
Nurse it within my chest
Drift until I meet ground
If I arise, I'll drown

Some nights I awake in a jolt and can't breathe
Grip desperate to blankets while grinding my teeth
Plummet from nothing to nowhere so fast
And pray the fresh crater I leave there will last

I'll just lie here, and never grow old
I'll stay 'til all my skin gets cold
I'll wash ashore, I don't know when
But soon enough I'll walk on land again
Walk on land again
Walk on land again
Walk on land again
Walk on land again
