Out of the Sky, Into the Sea

lyrics

Don't want to go where they are cruel and cold
Turning me into stone
Making me dry
Give me this warmth
A sunbeam to live in
A window to look out of

Misery blooms on the stem of suppression
The world that you see is the one you believe
Sleeping in poppies
Lost in the forest

Out of the sky, into the sea
Disappear under here pulled by the tide
Give me an island
I am an island

Don't want to go where they pull out the mold
Casting me out of clay
Making me dry
Give me this warmth
A sunbeam to live in
A window to look out of

Shut out the sights
And pull tight the sheets
They live in the dark and their faces you see
By the sliver of light through a cracked open door

Castles and kings await you my sweet
Dragons will fly you
Far, far from here
Where the concrete enfolds you
And they mold you of steel

Out of the sky, into the sea
Disappear under here pulled by the tide
Give me an island
I am an island
Out of the sky, into the sea
Disappear under here pulled by the tide
Give me an island
I am an island

Lauren Hoffman Los Angeles, California

music is exceptionally useful for communicating the nuance and complexity of the human experience because it is an emotional language, we process and respond to it in a different way than thoughts, beyond the limits of linguistics. that's why it's special and mysterious and i love it. that's why i write and sing and play instruments and make records. that's why i share my songs with you. ... more
