lyrics

I miss you when I find the grains of sand in my pocket lining
love notes from the ocean, and the strange way that time
corrodes things. My shoes filled up with water,
you put fishbones in my hands
as the black and briny sea tried to swallow up the land
and I’ll never heed another man nor his salty commands
I do exactly as I please with my own salty hands.
But you were good for me and it shows, I was hideous,
heaven knows - how ugly to think I could fix you.
And all the ugly things that I would do, and I’m starting to…
I miss you in the morning, yellow light, when haven’t yet
remembered that the presence is just some shapeless outline
but the sea wind blows me awake, the surf and spray
shock me to shape, and I am not yet unafraid
of our potential for mistake.
I miss you when the dusk falls, spent the whole day getting bored
I heard they started building ugly flats along the shoreline
and it was bleak enough already but sure what’s a few blocks more
when someone’s making money from those pebbledash eyesores.
So tell me did you settle down? Did you find another girl?
I don’t think of you so much these days, but I hope I’m prettier than her
and nothing can corrode me now, of that I am sure,
when I lick the salt from my fingertips, I never thirst for something more.
And anyway, these days I live just up from the square
where on sunny days the smell of the brewery hangs in the air,
sometimes I think about the strange flat we shared
with all the antique furniture waiting to be repaired.
And sometime we’d hear the floors creak upstairs
and on bad nights you’d whisper my name like a prayer
and the louder you’d chant your psychotic dithyramb
we were summoning some devil from the space between our hands
and I hope you can forgive me, there’s only so much I can stand
and now you are gone, all I’ve got are these pockets full of sand.
