(Run​-​Wild) Roses

from III: Ashes by Jeremy Stewart

/

lyrics

from my window can’t understand the view
map & compass lit up by the new moon
what I haven’t done this whole time is touch the sea
I’ll make a point of it even just my feet

let your heart be broken if you can’t make it stop
to the run-wild roses I sing what I withhold

take off sunglasses to reveal another pair
& yet I find I see more clearly in sea air
reminds me of what I was thinking at the time
words I could write before our lives capsize

let your heart be broken if you can’t make it stop
to the run-wild roses I sing what I withhold

to be at sea within myself and the last one to leave the beach today
writing on the sea to find what’s hiding within the folds of a wave
looking at the water & I wonder just how far out I could go
counting all the losses – and keep going ‘til there won’t be any more

let your heart be broken if you can’t make it stop
to the run-wild roses I sing what I withhold
