Lyrics
A Word & a Wave
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.
Finally torn asunder
Fall asleep romanticizing
Heartache in the city center
Watering your POTHOS while you hum
Aching for something you could save
A word and a wave
Kindly pull me under
Softening the seconds
As they're falling from the open window
Carried on a careful quiet song
Aching with nothing to be gained
A word and a wave
