lyrics

There are no hands here breaking jaws
Only words in mouths and moths in drawers
A clipper ship lost at sea
Drifting into sleep ahead of me

And when the long day slows and we open the show
It's okay if we abandon everyone

A cryptic slip, a stolen line
A ghost on watch until the end of time
A broken arm like a flag torn through
Like the spine of a book I thought I knew

When the morning breathes, trailing fingers through the hours
It's okay if we abandon everyone

And we'll map it before we black it when the compass is curved
And we'll sail it before we sink it when the atlas is blurred

A creaking ship, from the deck I see
A small sign of shore like a puzzle piece

When the engine fails to close the darkest day
With golden hearts and homecoming
Sleepless clocks and leaking things
The friends left here are wondering
Another year of circling
And it's okay if we abandon everyone
