Ember

At a moment’s notice, you wrecked the ship

One error, then you’re fucking dead, boy

Heavy rain, so you climb the cloud

Perched in the sky

Never dared to stay behind, well, never mind

An ordinary shift pays well enough

Hand to mouth, and there’s nothing to it

You’re a tadpole swimming in the sewer

Hold fort and hoist your sails, baby

With nothing here and nothing there

A knowing stare, swift undermined

It’s hard to find

With shuttered blinds and downcast eyes

Coordinatеs, my little navigator

Pump the veins, but your hеart’s not in it

I love you in an ominous way

Are you willing to pay

Are you willing to break

With all that’s layn before you

Before you’re swept and breathless in the dirty ground

So many times

You’ve ran for dear life

But I caught you like an ember

Caught you like an ember falling

Caught you like an ember falling down
