Lyrics Shores - Sophie Meiers

Shores

I am an ocean
Your presence
Is as warm as the sun but
It seems like I only get to be
With a reflection (oh)
Nobody wants to swim in the wind
On a cloudy day
And every message I traced into the sand
Got washed away, washed away (oh)
Sometimes, my cries sound like
Beautiful echoes
The ocean is violent
I’m frightened on so many levels
I am an endless abyss
I wish that you wanted to swim
But I know that your bones would
Crack underneath the pressure
If you still say that you wanna know me
On a deeper level
You can’t swim your love is land
You’re only searching for that buried treasure
As if my secrets locked inside
Could ever bring you any sort of pleasure
I guess I forget
You fell in love with the mountains
I guess I forget
You fell in love with the mountains
I’ve never been seasick before
I swam to far and I can’t see the shore
I’ve never been seasick before
I swam to far and I can’t see the shore
