line's down for now, the ocean sings
homebound but he's got a couple things
to make the day less loud
now sleep now, sleep, now
still dark as she ventures out alone
the shadows cast and write the dawn
no rules to wrap her pithy prose in skin
no sight but sky wrapped in orange glow
as the sea laps onto the shore
no sound but salt, so now she knows
he can't win
because there's no invisible hand to right the switch
there's no easy excuse for our loneliness
we give our friends the gift of what we'd do for ourselves
if we could only be somebody else
so sleep now, sleep, now
