A long day is all I have to give you
I'll pass it on a string
or float it through the light
Lonely, enough to know I need you
subtle like a train, coughing in the night
It opens up my mouth
but doesn't make a sound
I'll do what I can to help you drown
I put my tears in the ocean
That's my contribution
I put my tears in the ocean
The love I keep for me
I put my tears in the ocean
That's my absolution
I put my tears in the ocean
The love I keep for me
A straight line
is not enough to feed you
I'll twist it like a brick wall
growing on a vine
Anxious, enough to want to be you
The hole in my neoprene
is open to the sky
Dreams do seem to fade away.
