AIR

 

Lake covered sidewalks and plain sun

The earth is still supporting us

 

There's a lifeboat for every sunken reason 

You made yourself believe to be true

 

The earth is still supporting us 

 

Seagull’s report live from seas for reasons that been written 

Settling alongside the waves–studying water to read well 

 

The earth is still supporting us 

 

Salt water is what happens when who you ought to be 

Is tuned pitch perfectly with who you’ve been 

 

When who you are shows up the size of the sea

The power you have can drown this entire place 

 

The earth is still supporting us

 

It’s true that silence is not your savior

But silence will weed out contingencies that stand in your direct view of accuracy

 

The earth is predictable and supports us as such

It’s us who’ve changed
