WATERLINE

sitting on a crystal beach
looking down at my barefeet
watch sand sift
through my hands
as the tide comes in
I take in one deep breath
catch the last of the sunset
the sky is going up in flames


so let the water
carry me away
let the water rise
i'll take my chances
i'll follow my heart
and stay just above
the waterline


just as I thought out loud
the sun burst through the clouds
the heat burned through my skin
into my veins
I taste salt on my lips
see it on my eyelashes
i feel like something's
bout to change


so let the water
carry me away
let the water rise
i'll take my chances
i'll follow my heart
and stay just above
the waterline


i'm far from the shore
the tide has taken me to the sea
the moon's on the rise
the star's will soon be following
of all possible danger
i could get in
i'd have no choice
but to either sink or swim


so let the water
carry me away
let the water rise
i'll take my chances
i'll follow my heart
and stay just above
the waterline


i'm far from the shore
the tide has taken me to the sea
the moon's on the rise
the star's will soon be following
of all possible danger
i could get in
i'd have no choice
but to either sink or swim
