Ophelia

(Album: Rain City Drive - 2022)

In a black ocean full of stars
Under a heavy broken heart
Ophelia's slowly sinking deep
Staring at the heavens and holding her breath for me

Tell the catholic keepers I need a wafer
Free living sinners begin to get what they pay for
God damn, I'm dying what's the pain for?
Find a way to kill it, I don't want a cure anymore

Our bodies cradled by the tide

So don't talk about love
Like it's a rapid river
That won't carry your crown
Cause I'll always be with you now
So don't talk about love

It's not a sermon for the sentimental
You know they can't hold a candle
They say I'm better off picking petals
I'd rather paint you a picture
But it would swallow me
I'd fall in so deep
She'd block out the sun

So don't talk about love
Like it's a rapid river
That won't carry your crown
Cause I'll always be with you now
So don't talk about love
I'm filling up with water
But this feeling won't drown
Cause I'll always be with you now
I'm praying for

Ophelia, wait for me
White like a ghost on a porcelain beach
She glides out of reach
Lost in the rise of a lucid dream
She declines to comment
But on the other side of silence
She speaks freely

So don't talk about love
Like it's a rapid river
That won't carry your crown
Cause I'll always be with you now
So don't talk about love
I'm filling up with water
But this feeling won't drown
Cause I'll always be with you now
I'm praying for

Ophelia, wait for me
Ophelia, wait for me
