dance against the calm

(album: Dear Chaos - 2022)

Summer saw the calmin of a siege
We tied up an ocean and wired down our feet
On a wave when your gunfight sung out slow
And I'll walk away, thread the lives I've known

I want you
Can't unmiss it
We danced against the calm

Pile-up forms a forest in the streets
Incapable whiteout dawning while we sleep
On a wave in the garden we drowned our blood
I know that your maker bowed out before us

I want you
Can't unmiss it
We danced against the calm
I want you
Can't unmiss it
We danced against the calm

I did not, I did not
Seek to hear the violence
At war with your wildness
Hours over blinding silence

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Oooh
