Intertwine - Love and Weakness

You're kicking sand under my eyelids
You're adding chaos to the current
Hide your face in the waves
Don't let me get in your way

I came here to forget the things that happen when I look away
But you my reflection in the water won't look at me
You stare up at the sky instead where you wish you could be
Were you not trapped in the sea

Trapped beneath my feet
Like yours were tied to mine
I step aside and we intertwine again
I block your way to the sky
You block my way to the water
That's calling me to sink to the depths and dissolve

So if this sand will be my grave
Then walk through my body and wash away

Will I get lost with nothing but fingernails to carve a map in the waves?
To carve away at the water carving holes in me?

Will we get lost?

We fall apart like castles in the sand under the waves' embrace
We fall apart like cities in the storm you're breathing out

Will we be breathing at all?
Will your fingernails make marks in the clouds?
If I walk into the waves will you reach the sky or will your image just dissolve?

Why do we try too hard to fall apart?
You didn't always long for the sky I didn't always long for the sea
Why are we falling away from what we used to be?

We were always just enough

We were two hands clasped in prayer
So useless but so sure that if we stayed we would be all right

A closed door
Closed off but we felt safe inside

We were closing eyelids so worn out by the light
But now you burn in the sun
But now the waves take my sight
