between you and shadows

[Verse 1]

Grey as the sky falls over the meadow

Blue as the lake beneath you, the wind blows

Cold as the air between you and shadows

How did you get here? How did you not know?

How did you not know?


[Verse 2]

Come now, my kin, to the rivers that bend

And weave through the land 'round my spine like a thread

Twisted up like your mind 'round my soft spitting image

It's suddenly clear where you end and I begin

It's suddenly clear where you end and I begin


[Chorus]

If you would see me now, you'd know what's come to be

No one remembers how I'm always trying to leave

Just leave me bleeding out, I'm flowing toward the sea (Toward the sea)

Toward the place I've embodied


[Verse 3]

You can't say it out loud, it's on the tip of your tongue

So we'll stay here a while, you and me just pretending

As your eyes glaze over, I'll be searching inside

For what I knew you to be, it's not like you knew me

It's not like you knew me


[Bridge]

I've come to be

Trying to leave

Toward the sea

I've embodied


[Chorus]

If you would see me now, you'd know what's come to be

No one remembers how I'm always trying to leave

Just leave me bleeding out, I'm flowing toward the sea (Toward the sea)

Toward the place I've embodied


[Outro]

Toward the sea
