BEFORE YOU FALL
Keep it to yourself
Whisper it away
Lose it on the tide
Leave it to the birds
Backyard sighs
Arms fold like wings
Feathers dust the sky
Don’t be afraid as night bends back the trees
Keep it to yourself
Ice within your eyes
Sandbag the tears
Hold back the sea
Abandon the boats
Sever the lines strung through your mind
Don’t be afraid you’ll return with the tide
I cried
You can hold no more
You break even before you fall
Alone in this land locked sea
So drift away with me
Keep it to yourself
Don’t speak of it again
Hold your lovely mouth
I’ll seal it with a kiss
Sad sallow skin on porcelain face
In a sirens embrace
Don’t be afraid lay your hands on my head
Don’t be afraid as you raise up the dead
I cried
You can hold no more
You break even before you fall
Alone in this land locked sea
So drift away with me
