Lyrics

Oceandust

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

There's no more wind to be found in the sails

Hands full of fallen stars and comet tails

Rivers of sand unentwine through my hands

To know what they've seen, well

My burdens all pale

I'll make an hourglass from my fingers

I know I'm only passing through

I don't want to pretend that I'm stronger for it all

I don't want to pretend that the sadness is gone

'Cause I want to know that I'm steady on my feet

I don't want to pretend so peace will be real to me

There's no respite to be found in the waves

Each rise and retreat will scrub the blood away

I'll make an hourglass from my fingers

I know I'm only passing through

I don't want to pretend that I'm stronger for it all

I don't want to pretend that the sadness is gone

'Cause I want to know that I'm steady on my feet

I don't want to pretend so peace will be real to me

I don't want to pretend that I'm stronger for it all

I don't want to pretend that the sadness is gone

I don't want to pretend that I'm stronger for it all

I don't want to pretend that the sadness is gone

'Cause I want to know that I'm steady on my feet

I don't want to pretend so peace will be real to me
