Aery Thin Lyrics by Red River Dialect

Broken Stay Open Sky

2018

Dull ​rice
Dull ​stairs
Dull ​pillow
Get ​up
Walking ​around ​Bethnal ​Green ​again
In ​the ​rain
Three ​streetlight ​shadows
Roman ​Road

Past ​Victoria ​Park
Where ​just ​before ​dark ​I ​had ​cut ​myself
On Für ​Alina
Für ​Alina
Für ​Alina

I ​move ​some ​boxes ​off ​my ​bed
There’s ​a ​letter ​beneath ​that ​I ​have not ​read
It ​says ​“Dear ​David…”

And ​from ​a ​clear ​ocean
I ​was ​taken ​up
To ​a ​tremoring ​crest
So ​high ​above
Where ​I ​fear ​the ​break ​and ​the ​deathly ​fall
But ​the ​break ​don’t ​come
There ​is ​no ​shore
The ​wave ​rolls ​on

Two ​years ​later
Life’s ​not ​so ​tough
The ​sound ​of ​the ​key ​in ​the ​door ​means ​love
On ​both ​sides ​now

But ​the ​water, ​it’s ​been ​ebbing ​away
The ​waves ​they ​don’t ​come ​by ​so ​much ​these ​days
And ​I ​miss ​them

I ​miss ​the ​magnificent ​view
The ​gold ​haze ​caught ​in ​the ​air ​by ​the ​bruised
Sun ​going ​down

So ​I ​say ​to ​the ​ocean
Oh, ​take ​me ​up
To ​that ​tremoring ​crest
​So ​high ​above
Where ​I ​know ​there’s ​no ​break ​and ​no ​deathly ​fall
Now ​I ​see ​it ​come
But ​I ​can’t ​catch ​it
The ​wave ​rolls ​on

I ​beat ​the ​gold
So ​aery ​thin
But ​I ​want ​it ​back
I ​would ​lose ​you ​again
Before ​I ​would ​lose
The ​sense ​that ​you’ve ​gone
In ​sentiment
And ​aery ​song

Oh, ​you ​had ​to ​go
To ​show ​me ​how
To ​ride ​that ​wave
Oh, ​I ​see ​it ​now
But ​I ​beat ​the ​gold
Oh so ​aery ​thin
But I ​want ​it ​back
I ​would ​lose ​you ​again
