Telomeres

You guide me in
To safety and silence, oh
As you breathe me out
I drink you in, oh

And we go beyond the farthest reaches
Where the light bends and wraps beneath us
And I know as you collapse into me
This is the start of something

Rivers and oceans
We could beckon, no
Your eyes and your limbs
Are instruments to pick apart
The distance within

Let the tides carry you back to me
The past, the future
Through death
My arms are open

And we go beyond the farthest reaches
Where the light bends and wraps beneath us
And I know as you collapse into me
This is the start of something
