about

Indie Folk

lyrics

I want to be the light
touching your face
In the morning
after a night
of making haste

I want to be the sound
that wakes you
from a sleep
induced by a
thousand pills
they told you to eat

I want to be the sea
that shows you
your face
an unfiltered truth
of eternal taste

I want to be
the voice
that wakes you
from a dream
that haunts you in the night
with images you have seen

(chorus)
I have been there before (x2) {I want to be the sea x2}
where the horizon
meets the land and the sea
washes over the shore
and you only
get on chance
no more

I want to be
the words
scrawled across the page
that are sweet as honey
and that end in bitter taste

I want to be the drum
inside your chest
that beats so loudly
it ignores the rest

I want to be
the truth
inside your head
that feeds you
when your hungry
a body of bread

I want to be
the wind coursing
through your veins
a river-work that runs
through your inner planes
