umi

Asleep when awake and In the breaks I am waiting For a cloud to lift, bittersweet to drift Wrapped in the cotton, I can't hear And what I see is the usual I don't make the rules though Don't notice when I go adrift I just see me from the atmosphere A pinch of salt in the ocean A speck of dust stuck in motion Carried away like a branch, the waves, they're warm I close my eyes in the eye of the storm What's left of my emotion Caught in some erosion But nothing feels just as good as nothing And I'm so close, so calm Drop me into the sea and send me only where my eyes can reach I don't feel a thing in these tides, it flows beyond of me But it's warm, where it's muffling all the sounds in the ocean I just move with her sweet dance Drop me into the sea and watch the salt making my colors bleed You can catch 'em flow back shoreside, staying behind of me But it's warm, where my toes dig in your ground in the ocean I'm being washed off of my hands Salt in the water, part of a whole, hold me Bring out the sweetness in the fruit I sow and carry Salt in the water, part of a whole, hold me And let myself be washed away, clean of what grounds me A pinch of salt in the ocean A speck of dust stuck in motion Carried away like a branch, the waves they're warm I close my eyes in the eye of the storm What's left of my emotion Caught in some erosion But nothing feels just as good as nothing And I'm so close, so calm
