lyrics

For human beings
I think we were the best we'll ever be
That night
They say things like the stars aligned
But how can it be stars?
A hush of cloud barely above us
We made our own light
We shimmers epidermal
We smoke that tends the fire
Hold me, I am water, we had cried.

A human being,
You drowned my little lonely next to me
That night
I watched them sink, tied to my grief
A tumbling shiny shard
Love will fill the sea with holes
We have to shed our selves
We shimmers so ephemeral
We smoke that keeps the fire
Hold me, I am water, we must cry.

For human beings
I think we were the best we'll ever be
That night
They say things like we bear the scars
But how can they be scars?
The knotted tree was tendril once
Just making for the light
We shimmers circumstantial
We smoke that spread the fire
Hold me, I am water, we all cry.
