may's end - ocean of sand lyrics

Loading...

you were an ocean of salt
which my body sailed
with no risk of sinking or fault
no water to be bailed
until i saw a door
to nowhere
on your chest
and when i tried to sail through it
i became a holy wreck!

a ship through a door
reaches heaven even less
than the fish’s bones beside me
they thought it would be best
for me to dry like him
but i’m no such beast
i’m a structure made of wood
not pointless in the least
would you gather my planks
to make a house for your regrеt?
would you build your roof
over all the time wе’ve spent?

then, in a hobe sound dream
the salt turned to sand
i will only let you sink down
if you stay any longer
above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. (proverbs 4:23)

you were this ocean of time
on which i sailed
oh my god!
i can’t count where i’ve failed!
no magnificence to me
i’m no bigger than a snail
if i stay here i will die
i better learn how to fail
and sure
there will be wine
to forget my sigh+blown age
but the year is lost to me
we’ve forsaken this cage!

my heart perceives how my arrogance falters
my eyes are without me
i ought to lay upon an altar

both are liars

with some salt left
on my wasted collar
i’ve cast myself away
to treacherous falsehood
then i heard a gentle caller
“my child…” (herbert)
but i was too scared to reply
