Upon the Chopping of the Sea

by Luke Williams

/

about

in which Captaine Thomas James sings a breakup song about the ocean.

lyrics

I want you to show me where I'm broken
and feel me breathe
I need this to rear its head and cackle
and writhe and scream

Chorus:
You want to be in love but not together
I want to watch you kick yourself to sleep
in a league or a decade, what measure
there will be a passage
but never for me

I can't make a memory from nothing
or the year I've missed
I keep warm with buoyant salty pleasures
our bodies and our lips

I see eyes that sink and do not trust me
they roll and twist
I keep one hand always at my pistol now
this is my ship
