submarine transmissions

...this is the signal,

if you can hear me...

you won't find it by looking,

you find it by stopping...

the water was holding you before you had a name...

Loudest when it's quiet

Deepest when it's still (still...

still...

still)

Hold what you're given

Leave it no smaller than

you found it

Tell it straight

Let the silt see the truth

Nothing stays hidden below a still surface

Gravity

doesn't ask to be thanked

when it holds you

Loudest when it's quiet

Deepest when it's still (still...

still...

still)

Hold what you're given

Leave it no smaller than

you found

it

Pond for the bones...

steam

for the soul...
