Verdant Green

I found some kind of enlightenment
In the darkest depression
And here is my confession
Lightning struck and killed the girl
It was the birth of a new world
Where everything was verdant green
And it was as though I had never seen
Anything before
And the first time I found you, mo stór
I realised what I had taken birth for
To find you and reunite
So when we fight
Just remember it’s the clash of Titans
And when I’m writing
I only ever think of you
In the various forms I see you through
Coz we have been separated
And you dated
Other people
And the steeple
Is what I fear the most
I see you and her and the ghost
Of what I’ve lost comes to haunt me
Did he ever even want me
So I hold the waves back
But they crash to the shore like an attack
And I can’t keep them in
Its always gonna be him
My eternal partner in the sea
That somehow waits for me
And when the tide has pulled you low
I dive in and rise you til it’s safe to let go
And you never see the elf
Who fixes your broken parts like mending delft
In my grandmother’s glass cabinet
Did you think I was done with it?
Look a little longer and harder too
I am always with you
