6. The ocean’s overflowed
By the shore for a long long time
Made a building out of sand
Water close to land
My toes are getting cold
And the morning after tide
Sea is twice as wide
Waves grow greedy and high
Swallowing deeply
I’d fight the highest godsend
I built this house for you
But each night our home collapses
A stone house’s better for a girl like you
Spent the whole night diving, blind
For something I could never find
A future left behind
The ocean’s overflowed
And water feels so warm
Gently out of harm
A shelter for the lovesick
I’d fight the highest godsend
I built this house for you
But each night our home collapses
A stone house’s better for a girl like you
I’d walk the deepest abyss and I’d bring back every little grain I’d lose
But each night it all commences
And that’s too crazy for a girl like you
