lyrics

you’re standing on the beach at sunset
throwing mirrors at the sea
so the waves break on your reflection
because they were never meant to see

what happens when the lights go out
when the curtain falls, when you drop your act
when every single muscle in the body that you have contracts

you almost break from the weight of your smile

when your eyes fall out of focus
when forms bend out of shape
you want to hold onto your breath but
you watch a sigh escape

I see you hanging up empty frames
keep the pictures locked away
so desperately afraid that all the colours fade and

you almost break from the weight of your smile

you board the ships you think you should
exchanging pleasantries
drifting off you feel the storm, but pretend the water’s calm
you board the ships you think you should
you’re watching from afar
you’re throwing mirrors at the sea, the waves break who you are
