to tide us over (mouth)

Lyrics

maybe your tongue's a ruddy seafloor, silent in its night, just shy of the constellations you guide by, whispers of light, beneath the surface of some sayings, mirroring their time, what you mean to say burns silent as starshine, clear each night above the noisy city in your mind, the taste of pearl in the heart of your mind, round every wound, you just needed some time, sounding out the shapes, now of your most beautiful dreams, the speaker inside you stands to deliver the unseen, send up words to tide us over, bubbles in the flood, from our new atlantis somewhere beneath the sea of blood, i'm diving now to meet you, we can dance beneath the flagless moon, the taste of pearl in the heart of your mind, round every wound, you just needed some time, finally the tide has come to lick away, scars all chewed into the land, rising out the sea your words shine, haloing the jagged rocks of splashing man, chewing scars into the land, rising out the sea your words shine finally, the tide has come, you just needed some time, rising out the sea your words shine finally, the tide has come to lick away, scars all chewed into the land, rising out the sea your words shine, haloing, rising out the sea your words shine, finally the tide has come
