lyrics

6. Land Locked

It’s about that time, we start unwinding, any hope we wrapped around, the distant light in the silent conversation, that never blossomed into sound. ‘Cause we were hard weather, we were broken hearted, we were always forget-me-nots. We were flash-bulbs, we were constellations, and we tried to connect the dots…. But all this and all that and everything in between, never did amount to a damn thing. I wish we could call this low-tide, pretend we’ll come back rising, but darling we’re done for good… Well if you want to know, all that time felt like calling and calling down the bottom of a well. And if you want to know I never could let it go, let it go, let it go, until now… But all this and all that and everything else, never did amount to much. I wish we could call this low tide, pretend we’ll come back rising, but we’re land locked. All this and all that and everything else, never did amount to much. I wish we could call this low tide pretend we’ll come back rising, but we’re land locked… Nothing, nothing, nothing left. Some sand in your shoe, a stone in your chest. Some sand in your shoe, a song in your mind. We ran out of time, time, time…
