Sea Legs

Of all the churning random hearts under the sun

Eventually fading into night

These two are opening now

As we lie, I touch you under fuller light

Girl if you're a seascape, I'm a listing boat

For the thing carries every hope

I invest in a single light

The choice is yours to be loved

Come away from an emptier boat

Cause when the dead moon rises again

We've no time to start a protocol to hem us in

And when the dog slides underneath the train

There's no cry, no use to searching for the mutt's remains

Throw all consequence aside

In a cheerless pyre we will set alight

Of all the intersecting lines in the sand

I routed a labyrinth to your lap

I never used a map sliding off the land

On an incidental tide

And along the way you know, they try, they try

And we got sea legs and we're off tonight

Can I've that to which they've no right?

You belong to a simpler time

I'm a victim to the impact of these words

And this rhyme

Cause when that dead moon rises again

We've no time to start a protocol to hem us in

Darling when the dog slides, open the door, and where'd she go?

There's no time, no use to searching for the mutt's remains

Throw all consequence aside

In a cheerless pyre that we will set alight
