There's no one there
to be his sails
This storm
is your own
Absorbed in the thought
that he's all alone
thought
that's almost a touch.
I know it's not easy
And what would it be like
if he looked up
just for a moment?
what would it be like
if he gathered his courage
tenderness would respond
Empty words serve to distract
Under the surface, there's a sinking heart
Warm bosom still learning to swim
but the blame is pulling them down
I know it's not easy
I know he's overflowing
I know it's not easy
I know there's a tide inside
If you keep silent
No one will hear you
the body's not loud enough
to pull down your walls
