Lyrics

There are words like my face
Like my eyes
Pale and deep
There are words
Deep set in me
There are words
Like my mom
Hold me in
Low and soft
There are words
That lull me off
Water falls
When water falls
Water blurs
And words are washed
Off the page to
Stream
Bedroom floor
Holding feet
Filled with words
While I sleep
Bedroom floor
Under me
Water falls
When water falls
On holy books
Words fall off
In inky sheets
Through roots of trees
Down city gutters
Through river streams
And to the ocean
Where they always were
