Nest Lyrics by Half Waif

Probable Depths

2016

Gathering the papers:
Gonna make you a nest
For you, my love
Only the very best

Quiet the machines:
I'm gonna give you a rest
For you, my love
Only the very best

On the boat, you are rocking
I am watching far away
Close my eyes; when they open
You have fallen in the waves
Grab your wrist, feel the life drain
Right out of your veins
Never mind, I'll keep pulling
'Til I know that you're safe

Gathering the ashes
Gonna take whatever's left
I only know how to love you the best

On the day that you weaken
All your energy will fade
Close your eyes; when they open
I will offer you a stage
Don't you cry, I'll keep watching
'Til I know that you're safe
