The Detail

(album: Spring Island - 2021)

Caught my mind, late last night
Always embellishing the detail
Ought to know better though
Why do I do this to myself?

I'm such a mess
Oh well, I guess
Solace is everything

Morning calls for clearer thoughts
Cleaning the archive of all meaning
Let the breeze from the sea
Take the anxiety that I know

When my heart goes
Cannot see straight
All the feelings
Make it go blurry
And it's missing
All the detail

Come now, regain some control
What is tomorrow in the first place
How then can we still pretend
That we know?

No surprise
I'm alive, I'm alive
And if I fall through your fingers
That's alright, that's alright
That's alright

'Cause I'm alive, I'm alive
And if I fall through your fingers
That's alright, that's alright
That's all

I know where your heart goes
When you're lonely and you can't see
It's far too early to be hurting
From a future so uncertain

Come now, regain some control
What is tomorrow in the first place?
How then can we still pretend
That we know?

Solace is everything
