lyrics

I fill the pitcher with hot water
it cracks right down the middle
water spills all over the counter
you're still talking and I'm in the middle
I go somewhere else in times like these
feeling for an opening
something heavy lands
you try to fill silence that I'm swimming in

the clouds shift
I swallow
the air is thick around my head
if there's a truth in this I need to
find a
way to
show you

I fall asleep right at the edge of the water
feel the heat on my body
hear your voice and your laughter
and I wake up far from land, floating on my back
you wave from the beach, pushpin in a map
only getting further away

the water pools around my head
there's a truth in this I need to
find a
way to
talk to

talk to you
