about

My heart goes out to everyone figuring out what it means to love from a distance, be it 6000 miles or 6 feet.

lyrics

I’m setting out to sea
And I don’t know who I will be tomorrow
All I know is that these waves are beckoning me
To sail across this negative sky
To my home
For I am

Searching for, I’m searching for
An answer to her sadness in the house
Like a weather balloon
In a thunderstorm, a thunderstorm
Of all the days she longed to live without

Nothing looks the same
The tide has washed away the lighter shades now
All that’s left for miles is the past’s obsidian grain
The toughest tier of sediment deep
Underneath us
Where she must be

Searching for, she is searching for
An answer to her grief along the shore
Like a weather balloon
In a thunderstorm, a thunderstorm
Of all the ways she longed to live before

All she could find was a voice inside that said

You are searching for, you are searching For a truce between the living and the dead
You’re a weather balloon
In a thunderstorm, a thunderstorm
Of all the ways you died to blaze ahead

You’re searching for
You’re searching for
You’re searching for
Your search
