dilute it

A drop of rain
Bottle it up for you
Just in case you'll let me keep you
Or hold it off for a week

A grain of sand
Watch it sink through the glass
I'll count the minutes left to feel you
But draw your sword and I'll yield

Because
Handprinted letters
From washed-up machines
Was barren to you
But it was working for me
To sit and watch you try
To dilute it

A muttered word
Hauled out from behind your lips
As if I can't just see right through you
I'll have my heart bear the brunt

Cause I watched you
I watched you get distant
I saw you turn back, only this time
Looking right at me through a one-sided mirror

Because
Handprinted letters
And settled routines
Was a haven to you
But it meant the world to me
To sit and watch you try
To dilute it

And I'll brace for the moment
You pour the last wave
But stone engraved words
They won't just wash away
But I know all you want
Is to dilute it

Cause all I really want
Is to dilute it
Yeah, all I really want
Is to dilute it

You're beautiful
You're beautiful
Even when your eyes spark
For someone else
You're beautiful
