When The Ocean Won't Listen
When the ocean won't listen and you lose your voice from shouting at it, I'll be waiting on the sand for you and we'll walk home together, defeated but together. When the ocean won't listen and it spits it's salty kiss at you, I'll lick every bit of salt from your wounds. And when the ocean won't listen but instead it's current grabs at your ankles, I'll be ready with a rope back on shore. I'll toss it around your waist and I will not let go. Scream all night, waist deep in the water, I will not let go. When the ocean won't listen and we've been up all night, let's not worry ourselves seasick. When the ocean won't listen and it's waves rock you to sleep, I will stay awake and keep the sharks at bay. And when the ocean won't listen and you're ready to go under, I will stuff our pockets with rocks and tie anchors to our ankles. When you're ready to go under, I will drown with you.
