There is no demo for this song.

Liner Notes

i love my friends, we all need support sometimes (or a lot) and that’s okay
this is about mental health

this would just have acoustic guitar in the back, still working out the chords lol

Lyrics

Cloudy skies roll along
The lighthouse shines so bright
Spotlight on your misery
I will be there with you
Let me be your sight
The waves are not your only friend

Drop, dead, river, running to you
Sink, in, to, your ocean blue
When the tide, comes in
I will stand, at your side
When the waves reach up against your neck, keep above the water line
Oh, oh love of mine,
Oh, love, we’ll be fine
Breathe with me

Sleep is not a remedy
For all the aches and pains
I lay down and accept
Used to sinking
But still floating
You keep me tethered to the shore

Drop, dead, river, running to you
Sink, in, to, your ocean blue
When the tide, comes in
I will stand, by your side
When the waves reach up against your neck, keep above the water line
Oh, oh love of mine,
Oh, love, we’ll be fine
Breathe with me

(humming but idk how to onomatopoeia it)

max, this is so cinematic, and so heartfelt and true. i can hear the love you have for your friends and the love they have for you in every single word. “the waves are not your only friend” conveys SO MUCH in seven words—what an incredible line.

i love the way you write dude 😭
