A Day For The Rememberance Of The Souls Of Lost Whales
As I sped to the dock, the water was dark,
all clocks read 3AM.
And the gulls weren't alarmed, and the ships in the yard
rocked soft and sleeping in.
And the tide rolls out.
Who will see me now?
I hope there's someone sad as me awake on a Sunday morning.
I grew binocular eyes so that I'd catch your smile
spread wide past miles and miles.
I heard you simpled your song so that I'd hum along,
that saline soft as the morning at 5.
And the tide rolls out.
Who'll believe me now?
I hope there's someone sad as me awake on a Sunday morning.
Let's stay bound in blue and barnacle brown/I've been searching around for barnacle brown.
Then let's push back and swim-rum down, down.
As I sped from the dock, the water was dark
a whirlpool green and gray.
And there is someone sad as me, awake on a Sunday morning.
