about

A song about endings and beginnings.

lyrics

Bristol

After the party's over, it's time to come home/
After the party's over, it's time to come home/
Each fumble, roll and spin, they weren't empty then/
I treasured that thoughtless din, insignificant/

But now that I'm not beholden, the days float/
Cast off and row the ocean, you sink if you don't/
The torrents you bring my dear, they are coming near/
I'm waving not drowning here, though I'm full of fear/

I'm scared of the deep below, more scared if the water's shallow/ x4
Rootless when you float/ x6

We dance as we drift on the ocean/
