Swell Lyrics by Cooza

Contours of a Cliff

2022

[Verse 1]
Hours of sun saw the cliff face eroding
By the perilous waves crashing high from the ocean
Aegaeon hand-crafted death & commotion
Gaia tried to keep me afloat
But I still
[Chorus]
Slip away
Slip away & swell
Slip away
Slip away & swell
[Verse 2]
Life in water turned my body to bloating
Drowning in somber stories, crystal sodium
Clawed from shoreside by white lip foaming
Cried over lovers like rare ancient myths
Now I still
[Chorus x2]
Slip away
Slip away & swell
Slip away
Slip away & swell
Slip away
Slip away & swell
I watch you slip away
Slip away as well
[Outro]
And it all floods back
Those seaside towns
And late night drives
Down country roads
But I’ll thank you for that
And I’ll let you go
And we’ll cheers to the past
Then I’ll swim back home
The bottles of wine
The food to go
The movies reeling
On the back of my skull
An infamous cryer
I’ll let the tears turn to jokes
I’ll let the moment surround me
Then I’ll let you go
