Air Above
Sometimes it feels like an ocean 
 Is over you
 Drowning you in a sea 
 Of your tears
 Waves pull under
 They grip you
 And shake you
 Until all you want
 Is to wake
 To be away from the tide
 Calling out over miles
 To what you don’t know
 Sucking you deep
 Into the still
 And you try
 You wish you could see the air
 A vision above 
 But you never get there
 Not quite
 The sea is too strong
 It conquers 
 When you are alone
 So take my hand
 Take my hand in yours
 Let us try together
 Palm to palm
 Flesh on flesh
 I will lift you up
 And we can float above
 Flying over it all
 Watching the waves crash below
 Just out of reach
 Shrinking, shrinking
 We will soar
 Farther than you ever imagined
 Into the stars
 Into the dawn
 Into the rising sun
