[Intro]
I would that the world become you, give it time
Blooming like the shadows upon you I drowned beside
Floating on the water to show me your softer side
While everything is spinning beneath 'til it falls like glass
Just give it time
Now close your eyes
[Verse 1]
I would that the world become you, give it time
Blooming like the shadows upon you I drowned beside
Floating on the water to show me your softer side
While everything is spinning beneath 'til it falls like glass
Just give it time
The sands will pass
[Verse 2]
Heavy are the winds from the east, they have come to see
Fallen like hundred-year-old trees missed your body
Watching as I comb through the pieces on the beach
Patient as I bury my wrath under pink lightning
I bear to breathe
The smoke will fall
Oh, cease me
[Chorus]
Warm water rises
It still feels like I can't stop crying
Hold me inside it
It still feels like a storm not dying
And all that was undone
Was done when we were young
I'm not sure how it feels quite
(I'm not sure how it feels quite)
[Post-Chorus]
Everything is spinning beneath 'til it falls like glass
Just give it time
Now close your eyes
[Verse 3]
Heavy as the weight in my chest, oh, this seldom dread
Lying in the dark with a wake curled over my head
In all my blood I'd rather be found, oh, my recklessness
Thunder, oh, the fury of peace
I rest between
The echoing
Disquietly
Oh, cease me
[Chorus]
Warm water rises
It still feels like I can't stop crying
Hold me inside it
It still feels like a storm not dying
And all was that undone
Was done when we were young
I'm not sure how it feels quite
(I'm not sure how it feels quite)
[Outro]
It still feels like I can't stop crying
It still feels like a storm not dying
It feels like I can't stop

I had a family reunion last summer [in Montana], and it was hard in the way one would expect family reunions to be. The night before it started, a bunch of us got together up in Montana. The weather was beautiful and sunny, and we were making pizza in the oven outside. But then all of a sudden, huge...
