about

Honeydew will be out this November!

lyrics

I wish I could swim
To ferry you over this little pond's width

You watching the sun
Like she couldn't burn you
She tells you to run

She holds you too close
She whispers too sweetly
She tells you she knows

You grow heavy
I grow tired
You hold me down
The waves grow higher

With salt on my teeth
A plague on my nature
It gets hard to breathe

You say something fast
We drown for an instant
This moment won't last

You grow heavy
I grow tired
You hold me down
The waves grow higher

You grow weary
I grow old
I close my eyes, embrace the cold
