alex st joan - fish lament lyrics

[verse 1]
well into half the night light shifted
broke up the colors and hues (colors and hues, colors)
she let go of reason here, toes dipped in crimson
black blossoms the current
and custom dictates she give in (custom dictates she give in)
your only opponent is the salt water
why try alter your fate, oh, you land+lover?
oh, daughter

[verse 2]
and walking on knives is no light price to pay, my dear
souls are no lighter than love undeclared (love undeclared)
scissor+steps bring you much closer to splеndor
but when that coat’s worn through you’re bare
bе wary of your yearnings (be wary of your yearnings)
such burnings die out with the dawn
we all long for glory (we all long for glory)
but you want to write your own and leave us alone (leave us alone)
leave us alone (leave us alone)

[bridge]
but you’re our salt and bone
you are sunlight and foam
you are bracken and brine
you’re the fall and the climb
and you’re only a child (child)
you’re only a child
[outro]
so stay
with the light on the waves
with the ocean’s embrace
with the silver and shale
with the pearl and the pale and the pull of the moon
and the twist of our tails and our stories and tunes
with the fall and the [?] and the dive and the call of the whales
and the salt and the brine and the billowing sails
rule of the tide where the baleen holds sway
and you’re with your kind
do not leave us behind
