Conspicuous Minimalism Lyrics

Conspicuous Minimalism lyrics

High above the ocean

High above the sea

High above this ink and paper,

you were next to me.

Called you from the window

Called you from the drowsy, 

halfway stubborn sleeping.

Waves repeat with anger

Waves repeat with cause.

Waves repeat in perfect sequence

Serve to give us pause. 

Stand to face this morning

I'll sing the sun up, push my feet forward

Stumble to the next oasis



One of us is home, I know. 



Count the leaves in tandem

8 then 5 then 3

Find the pattern, pray the pathway soon revealed to be

Fix my eyes upon you

Landlocked from the winter sparrows

An ocean full of ink can't write that



One of us is home, I know.
