lyrics

Sometimes I wish that I
Could fall apart into the deep
like hotels on the pier
that died and slipped the depths
The water's warm and dark
Let Thetis come and bury me
to break free from this shell
to escape eternal ennui
and please know
I never wanted this
if I were like you
I'd be a conduit
But I lack
the entropy you seek
Bring back a warmth to keep

I stared into the sea
she stared right back at me
came up to the shore
and swallow this island whole
fortified and scarred
determined and strong
but this hundred year storm
would prove the proud and faithful wrong
