"Islands" lyrics
Islands
Held together, only by accident
Water cuts around us
And we are solid set
Interknit
Sinking in
While you're leaning out in your chemistry
Losing all your thoughts and your memories
Take another hour, let the weather pass
It's changing with the tide, like it always has
Rip currents surround me
To the rhyme of our melody
It's carving out our shape
As the waves are coming in
Silence
The dawn tide
Closes around us
A steady hand to calm the sand
And divide us
In birdsong
Fading up
While you're leaning out in your chemistry
Losing all your thoughts and your memories
Take another hour, let the weather pass
It's changing with the tide, like it always has
Rip currents surround me
To the rhyme of our melody
It's carving out our shape
As the waves are coming in
Caught
The daylight in the bloom
And the sun gets in your eyes
The sun gets in your eyes
Come
The daylight in the bloom
And the sun gets in your eyes
The sun gets in your eyes
Held together, only by accident
Water cuts around us
And we are solid set
Interknit
Sinking in
While you're leaning out in your chemistry
Losing all your thoughts and your memories
Take another hour, let the weather pass
It's changing with the tide, like it always has
Rip currents surround me
To the rhyme of our melody
It's carving out our shape
As the waves are coming in
Silence
The dawn tide
Closes around us
A steady hand to calm the sand
And divide us
In birdsong
Fading up
While you're leaning out in your chemistry
Losing all your thoughts and your memories
Take another hour, let the weather pass
It's changing with the tide, like it always has
Rip currents surround me
To the rhyme of our melody
It's carving out our shape
As the waves are coming in
Caught
The daylight in the bloom
And the sun gets in your eyes
The sun gets in your eyes
Come
The daylight in the bloom
And the sun gets in your eyes
The sun gets in your eyes
