I wish you could hear the symphony
Of the seagulls screaming
Here on this island in the fishless sea
I’m not looking for survivors
I’m not looking for diamonds
When I walk along the shipwrecked shore
I’m searching for the hole in the ocean
Where the soft rain always falls
It could be turtles all the way down
A penguins’ black round eye in the sky
It wouldn’t matter much to me
Cause I’m slowly rusting away
They call me the tin man
Is that really who I am?
Just a tin man
This morning I found seaweed in my tea
And I heard on the news
That you lеft your anchor
For a new coat of bleach
I wish you could see
That you’re just soakеd in saltwater and myths
If you are the tin man
Then I must be
The scarecrow
I’ll go out diving tonight
And should I drown, then you know what to do
Bury me under a willow where you can weep
I’m gonna miss the taste of salt
While spending time alone
In the soil
