Lyrics The Seaweed Brother -

The Seaweed Brother

You were the first one to the reservoir
Now you’re the first one to the lake
The way the water wrapped its waves around your wrists
And we became a whale
Now lying beached in someone’s bed
I was your brother wrapped in photographs
Now filling boxes in the loft
The dusty breath that hangs like death around our necks
And filled ur brains with sand
Only your sadness lingers on
Seaweeed brother don’t be angry
Your teeth creak and your eyes empty
Seaweeed brother don’t haunt me
I will hold your breath inside me
I heard your voice inside a telephone
I saw your face in piles of clothes
I saw your spirit reach out of a mountain range
And swallow up the sand
Only your sadness lingers on
You were the first one to the reservoir
Now you’re the first one to the lake
I was your brother wrapped in photographs
Now I’m the first one to the wake
