Low Tide

You woke up in the morning
And we went swimming in the sea
We drank it in, every moment
Through the day
Stayed there so long we lost track of time
We woke up
So far away from shore
On the open waves so close to nothing and no one
Couldn't feel the waves
Couldn't hear the rocks
Everything was still, oh no
Golden light of the sun met the horizon
Dipping below the spray
An atrementous void of nothing became the world
I called your name
But my voice was muted underwater
Dragged me down, down, down, down, down
Met the sun on the other side of its arc he said
You are not alone little one, you are not alone
Hold on for dear life and you'll see
I begged him for his light on my way home
He looked at me and sighed
I've risen for the last time he said to me
Withering, I felt his light begin to die
You can't make it any further in the dark
You can't make it any further on your own
Can't let it go on anymore without more of what is known
No more will I sleep
No more will I stay
I woke up on the other side
The moon sung
The moon sung
