You Drift Away
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.
Swam against your waves
the glinting glass
cut against me
darkly flowing past
like frightened
shadows
swallowed by an
empty starless blue
as the spreading ocean
swelled and grew
from here
to you
you drift away
you drift away
drawn in by the
undertow you went
and another
comfortless night spent
waiting
but weightless
you drift away
you drift away
