Fosfene - Buried at Sea Lyrics

Your voice sounded like smoke as it spilled over my cheek
And the words that you spoke stirred the breath out of me
The fringe of life lived through gritted teeth
The mud on our hands and the blood on our feet
And for a moment I felt a spark of relief
So I sank it unceremoniously

Let me go down
That I be washed clean
The innocence drowned with the last of my grief

The heave of your chest and the weight of your breath
I will carry these things to the place of my rest
Where the mud on our hands and the blood on our feet
Fall away in the unceremonious sea

Let me go down
That I be washed clean
The innocence drowned with last of my grief

Above a whisper I spoke with this small part of me
And with the heaviest of hearts I lay it at your feet
Where the mud on my hands and the blood on my cheek
Be all that's left of what we buried at sea

Come fall away in the unceremonious sea
