Dive

Your heart as dry as your humour
A desert through which I tread
Desperately searching for water
Mirages are all that I get
You’re already asleep when I get into bed
I get up and you’re already gone
It’s just how it is that’s what everyone says
But it’s been like this for too long
Let’s dive deeper
We’ve only each other to fear
Let’s dive deeper
Try to fall back in love before we come back up for air
My love for you is a river
A Taniwha at each turn
I overwhelm you each winter
But soothe you when summer returns
I am breaching the banks, spilling over the line
You retreat but I want you to swim
You wanna stay in the heat and the dry
But we’re dying so get the **** in
Let’s dive deeper
We’ve only each other to fear
Let’s dive deeper
Try to fall back in love before we come back up for air
For air
A Taniwha at each turn
But soothe you when summer returns
