Water

Gloves hold you in

Accessorise

Corners of sin

And potential crimes

The colds scolds your chin

Draws some salt from an eye

But even the wind

Can't get much of a rise

How long will it take you

To want to go home?

How long will it take you

To learn there is none?

You were a sister, a daughter

Just what was your role

In that family now scored

With stitches and holes?

Stitches and holes

Stitches and holes

You got somewhere to be

So you can't get lost

And you're filled with a substance

That melts any frost

I want to take you to dinner

But you'd rather hang out at rest stops

Engaging in discourse

Better scratched into desktops

Then your phone rings

It's just me

How long will it take you

To trust me? To trust me

I'm coming down to get you

Even though you don't answer

Because the snow was okay

But the rain is coming faster

Rain is coming faster

Rain is coming faster

Water sinks in

Faster, then thickens

My pockets, my pockets are drinking

Your fingers, my fingers are sinking

Sinking

Water sinks in

Faster, then thickens

My pockets, my pockets are drinking

Your fingers, my fingers are sinking

Water sinks in

Faster, then thickens

My pockets, my pockets are drinking

Your fingers, my fingers are sinking

Sinking
