SAFETY ROPE
c. 2011

I didn’t ask for us
For you to come around
For you to let yourself in
And never leave my heart

Now we are drifting
Out into the sea
Holding onto the thread
That leads you back to me

And I can feel the wind blow
From an Eastern corner
But I can’t find my way home
Now that we’re on foreign waters

Caught up in your current
And just below your surface
I can see the coast
But you just let go
of my safety rope

It’s so quiet
In the Salton Sea
A little town abandoned
A place we could’ve lived

So this is sinking
To the ocean floor
But even if rough water
I’ll always wash up on your shore

And I can hear the wind call
From an Eastern corner
But I can’t find my way home
Here on foreign waters

Caught up in your current
And just below your surface
I can see the coast
But you just let go
of my safety rope
