Here are your options   Take this and run   Or retrace your footsteps   (But) What’s done is done   Danger is quick here   Not to deter    Answers are found here   But not in words      We both know   Our eyes have swept over this ocean   From the sharpest shores and their rocks   Just to feed the coldest of notions   To teach the most hopeless of hearts   That there is more than these precious stones      But this is nothing   A pebble in the soil you sleep on,   A carbonated coral neon   If you take this don’t let go   And when I say, go      We are the painted targets at home   Before the moat and behind the walls   Pray their crosshairs never find your kiss      This has gone overlooked   The water in the dark   Where we can wash our parts   But what makes us clean?      Just pray these marks are yours   This earth is wet, these prints are fresh   Their eyes may fall on us   Let’s hope that you keep your wits and your step in line      Before you leave here   Look back on us   Relive the notions   Felt on the rocks   And though we part here   It’s not a loss   Because the oceans   Still love the rocks
