Killer Whale

I'm a shadow of glass
Cracking under your Sun
You speak and I melt
But your gaze weighs none

Your smile is a tide
It pulls then lets go
I drown in the gesture
You’ll never know

Leave me now, return by light
The Moon won’t guide the way
If you forget my ache
I will still decay
Like a killer whale, whale
Trapped in a tank

I'm a storm with no rain
A hand you don’t hold
You play on the edge
I break in the cold

You’re a lighthouse for none
I'm a ship with no shore
I wait in your silence
Wanting more

Leave me now, return by light
The Moon won’t guide the way
If you forget my ache
I will still decay
Like a killer whale, whale
Trapped in a tank

I'm a garden of stones
Blooming for you alone
You water the air
And I break like bone

Leave me now, return by light
The Moon won’t guide the way
If you forget my ache
I will still decay
Like a killer whale, whale
Trapped in a tank

I'm a garden of stones
Blooming for you alone
You water the air
And I break like bone

I love you in silence
Where no tide can reach
And in the smallest cage
I learn not to breathe
