lyrics

We were monkeys
Digging in the dirt
So pleased with ourselves
We were cats
Catching our tails
So amazed at ourselves

While a slick black liquid sleeked the world
An ink that wrote a million names

We were snakes
Singing in the mirror
Enchanting ourselves
We were rats
Who danced the polka
With their own shadow

While my name and yours
Were added to the list
And the tide rose up
And carried us out

Into a dark ocean
A dark ocean

At the boundary of sea
It is midnight
We have lost our way
The finger pointing to the moon
Was not the moon

The lost sound of the dawn
The lost dance of eyes and hearts
Unmoored, we cling to driftwood out here
Where the cry of gulls is drowned out
By the silence of the ocean

Dark ocean
