lyrics

Sometimes letting go is the only option
When you’re falling through the universe
with no direction
If I hold you will I pull you down?
If I let you go will you be found?
After the water goes down
After the water goes down
Like driftwood on a beach
Will you be out of reach and carried out to sea

This violet wave was unexpected
We stood and watched it as it moved across the island
It didn’t look strong from the outside
But it tore you from my side
After the water goes down
After the water goes down
Wreckage on the shore
There’s nothing anymore to stay here for

Back in the city I had a dream
You called my name in a shell
And the waves were soft and clean
You were in heaven
I’m here in hell

Some days merely breathing
takes every ounce of concentration
If I could go back I’d be stronger and I’d have held onto you longer
After the water goes down
After the water goes down
Would I be where you are so distant and so far?
Above it all
Above it all
