[Intro]

I would that the world become you, give it time

Blooming like the shadows upon you I drowned beside

Floating on the water to show me your softer side

Everything is spinning beneath 'til it falls like glass

Just give it time

Now close your eyes


[Verse 1]

I would that the world become you, give it time

Blooming like the shadows upon you I drowned beside

Floating on the water to show me your softer side

While everything is spinning beneath 'til it falls like glass

Just give it time

The sands will pass


[Verse 2]

Heavy are the winds from the east, they have come to see

Fallen like hundred-year-old trees missed your body

Watching as I comb through the pieces on the beach

Patient as I bury my wrath under pink lightning

I bear to breathe

The smoke will fall

Oh, cease me


[Chorus]

Warm water rises

It still feels like I can't stop crying

Hold me inside it

It still feels like a storm not dying

And all that was undone

Was done when we were young

I'm not sure how it feels quite

(I'm not sure how it feels quite)


[Post-Chorus]

Everything is spinning beneath 'til it falls like glass

Just give it time

Now close your eyes


[Verse 3]

Heavy as the weight in my chest, oh, this seldom dread

Lying in the dark with a wake curled over my head

In all my blood I'd rather be found, oh, my recklessness

Thunder, oh, the fury of peace

I rest between

The echoing

Disquietly

Oh, cease me


[Chorus]

Warm water rises

It still feels like I can't stop crying

Hold me inside it

It still feels like a storm not dying

And all was that undone

Was done when we were young

I'm not sure how it feels quite

(I'm not sure how it feels quite)


[Outro]

It still feels like I can't stop crying

It still feels like a storm not dying

It feels like I can't stop
