[Lyric] Contours of a Cliff (Cooza)

[Verse 1]

A pearl in the ocean
In the mouth of a clam
Around my throat
Dripping from my chin

I hold you at the highest point of light

[Verse 2]

A peculiar glow
In the water
Crumbs of the moon
We didn’t gather

Hold me close if only for one more night

[Chorus]

Everything I’ve loved is at the bottom of the sea
You’re the wild waves, so nihilist & free
I don’t dare to dream anymore
You appear in them, then I appear at your door
[Verse 3]

You build me a boat
I’ll sail it back to you
You build me an island
But I don’t want to

Live alone for as long as I’m alive

[Verse 4]

I made peace
With the sirens
Nonе of the sharks
Turned to violencе

Maybe I’m the one who won’t give up the fight

[Chorus]

Everything I’ve loved is at the bottom of the sea
You’re the wild waves, so nihilist & free
I don’t dare to dream anymore
You appear in them, then I appear at your door

My most beautiful eternal war
[Bridge]

The contours of a cliff are
Carved by the wild waves
I’m the erosion, rock to be replaced
Sedimentary, I crush beneath the weight
Can’t bear to feel you go

[Outro]

But you go, you go, you go
But you go, you go, you go
But you go, you go, you go
