about

This had a different name before, but then I googled it and every result was about Jeffrey Epstein so I knew I had to change it.

lyrics

train tracks on the moon
painted runes on the sky
face the colored night in your own hands
watercolored eyedrops dripping down
to open up the island
bless the children

ring in the new tide
new tide
ride

little footsteps toward the flaming altar
circles and squares of people singing
making up the words on the dirt spot
you'd think it so out of your head
embracing the ride
embracing the rain
and slide

island

they speak their dreams into tomes
they write with only words
stored in somebody's ivory stream
inside the ice machine
saved for summer
melting over ice

an hour passes like a day
sometimes there's just nothing else to say
give yourself a good reason to stay
moving yourself out of everybody else's way
change embraced for the golden ride
ringing in the aging tide
I know it's safer out there
taken by the rain
consumed by the ocean

island
ride
