Slow ticking clocks
My whole face was melting away
In the wind
When you sailed away
Standing by the docks
I knew that you were out there somewhere
Floating around on the deep blue sea
Hollow like a shell
Heart floating in the air
Blue numb fingertips
Frosted like tulips
In the cold morning
Dew drops on the brown wood
Glassy eyeless silver fishes
And I say goodbye to you
Stomach empty lungs full
Falling harder than I should
Freedom looks so far away
When only you can make me stay
Ten fading dots
All the days went by flying
When I was at the shore
Tasting the salty sea
But you're bursting at the seams
Burning brighter than all of the storms
That came around in November this time
By the beach
Growing crooked rocks
Just like inside my mind
Crystallising the grain
To build stolen dreams
Hollow like a shell
Heart floating in the air
Blue numb fingertips
Frosted like tulips
In the cold morning
Dew drops on the brown wood
Glassy eyeless silver fishes
And I say goodbye to you
Stomach empty lungs full
Falling harder than I should
Freedom looks so far away
When only you can make me stay
Drunk on shaking rocks
I stand on sand
Have no plans to make it out alive
I swim with the tide to the sea
And now you know
What I mean
So we smile
And I break every time
The waves come
Crashing down in the cold
To meet me
Hollow like a shell
Heart floating in the air
Blue numb fingertips
Frosted like tulips
In the cold morning
Dew drops on the brown wood
Glassy eyeless silver fishes
And I say goodbye to you
Stomach empty lungs full
Falling harder than I should
Freedom looks so far away
When only you can make me stay
