The sky is heavy with whispers tonight
Every word feels soft but wide
I reach for the air like it's something to hold
But it slips through my fingers
So cold
Falling like the tide
It comes and it goes
What stays in my hands
Nobody knows
Falling like the tide
Slow and alive
Washing away what I thought would survive
The ground hums low
A song it won't share
I try to hum back but it's not even there
Each step I take feels lighter than thought
But the weight in my chest
Is something I caught
Oh it's quiet
Too quiet
The kind that can break
Like a string pulled too tight
A breath you can't take
I'm falling
I'm falling
But not out of place
I'm floating to somewhere I'll never erase
Falling like the tide
It comes and it goes
What stays in my hands
Nobody knows
Falling like the tide
Slow and alive
Washing away what I thought would survive
