The Ocean In A Room letra

I'm a silent harbor on your coastline
Watching the high tides come and go
The salt is on my skin, but I am steady, hiding
The depth that I won't show, you speak in daylight

Like a soft breeze, not knowing the storm you
Could ignite, I keep the anchor lowered in the
Darkness, keeping my enormous love out of your
Sight, oh, the distance in the small room is a

Desert, and the silence is a sea I cannot swim
It's a weight I'm carrying, heavy as the mountain
Bright as a Sun that's always getting dim, how
Vast, how wide, how high, the secret rises

A universe that only I can see, yes
It's a terrifying thing, and pretend it doesn't
Belong to you and me, pretend it doesn't belong
To you and me, we share the tea and talk about the

Weather, I laugh until the edges start to fray
Every syllable you drop is like a feather, and I'm
The earth that catches everyone you say, I have a
Map of every line upon your forehead

I know the way you turn your head to smile, I'm memorizing
The shadows in the carpet just to keep the hunger
At bay for a while, if I let the walls crumble
Would you stay or would the light be more than you

Could take? It's a beautiful heavy way to spend my
Days, waiting for the glass to finally break, oh
The distance in the small room is a desert, and
The silence is a sea I cannot swim

It's a weight I'm carrying, heavy as the mountain
Bright as a Sun that's always getting dim, how vast
How wide, how high the secret rise is
A universe that only I can see, yes

It's a terrifying thing, and pretend it doesn't
Belong to you and me, pretend it doesn't belong
To you and me, how vast? How high? Just a
Little secret, m just a breath between us

Mine to keep
