lyrics

Tectonics

Is this desire
truly reason free?
or only entertainment
what is left of you and me?

is this longing
really part of love?
what if this mutual gaze
has been a never-ending chase?

I know I dream you

Gotta keep moving
Shift the tectonics
Cause I don't want to
Become a target
Rain starts falling
From the cliff to the beaches,
Reaches the shoreline
in endless erosion.

The lighthouse is guiding
A ship to the harbour
It's getting harder
to come across

Gotta keep breathing
Get off this Titanic
Captain, oh captain!
Your radar is dying
just when we need some
signal to guide us

Away from the currents
On these foam crested seaways
The flood comes from two sides,

Making it harder
to come across.
