Stranded Anchor Lyrics

safe, to my surprise
cut the threads with symmetry and find
a delicate off-white
like a mirror painted over once or twice

I said, never go away
you said you wouldn't have it any other way

(absent mind)
it's just a prayer
like a language no one speaks (separate the time)
for centuries revolve around me

never mind
you'll never feel at home without the prying eyes
don't act surprised
it'll take a time
it'll take a careful love to disappear inside
