Nina Violet — Run to the Stream lyrics

Lyrics

run to the stream
and cast the shell from off your body
the whole world is the cold upon your skin
and what it is to feel
heartbeat against your shoulder
can you feel it
would it be louder if I was a tragedy?
I’ll sing across the table
sing across the ocean
your eyes, the color of the water
in the channel
my mother told me not to swim in
because it would take me out to sea
I wouldn’t be able to swim back in
