anju - the reef lyrics

[verse 1]
she wrapped me in silver
put a rose in my hair
she slept on my sea floor
and answered my prayers
she reached for me softly
with sugar on her tongue
but our kisses were salty
and turning me numb
how do you speak so sweetly
and still turn my corners to dark
how do you breathe so deeply
and fill up my lungs with these
shards of green and blue

[chorus]
come with me underwater
we’ll dive way down where they bite at our knees
sand and branches, dinner time dances
oh, oh
come with me underwater
it’s been so long since we last spoke
transfer your bruise to banyan tree roots
i know, oh

[verse 2]
you’re in some glass galaxy
forgetting me now
but i’m trying to hold onto me
and remember somehow
i still have my starfish
my skin and my scales
i listen for whale songs
and i’m chasing their trails
[chorus]
come with me underwater
i’ll hold your hand if you’re afraid, you said
the smell of your soap, the reef always knows
i’ll still be underwater
i’ll pick a few plants and fill up my photo frame
fingers unpainting, slowly erasing
oh, oh

[outro]
flying and falling and falling
floating and floating and glowing and glowing
growing and growing and reaching and reaching
i’m born of the reeds in the reef
