My Deep Shoreline
I can see your silhouette, approaching in the rain
Your hair spread like a fishing net, with promises of pain
You can try to cast it on me but a shadow will you gain
My deep, deep shoreline
Is much further than you can see
My deep, deep shoreline
Is where you'll never be
I can hear your words advancing through the aching wood
Over understorey, dancing, and they do not mean me good
They are calling for me but they'll only find where I once stood
My deep, deep shoreline
Is much further than you can know
My deep, deep shoreline
Is where you'll never go
Bide with me, my own shadow, my own shadow
Lay with me, my lonely soul, my lonely soul
I have built myself a citadel invisible to you
Your heart will never find it if your heart is never true
I may stay here for eternity amd watch the ocean blue
My deep, deep shoreline
Is much further than you can see
My deep, deep shoreline
Is where you'll never be
Bide with me, my own shadow, my own shadow
Lay with me, my only soul, my only
My deep, deep shoreline
Is much further than you can know
My deep, deep shoreline
Is where you'll never go
