Shipwreck

I was only here for days
You only here for nights
So busy we were getting restless
So glad that we got on that flight

You belong to the city but your heart is in the sea
The waves will crash around you while on a shipwreck with me

Now no more conversation
Winds pick up and we lose the station
Waves are looking tall
Colors gone to greyscale
Drinks now on the floor and your voice is raising
Fuck!
What do we do?
Only hesitation
Thunder interrupts while the swell is raising
Raining on your face
How our lives are changing
Out here in the storm
More than our hearts are sinking

You belong to the city but your heart is in the sea
The waves will crash around you while on a shipwreck with me
