All Surface

float away winter
put a rest
to your test
climb aboard summer
a gentle breeze
stirs the trees

stay a while lover
make me feel
like I'm real
turn your face to me
let me know
before you go

why they don't know me
like they should know me
like they said they would
and I don't mean it
and they can't see it
like I wish they could

did you sail sister
around the world
clever girl
as you span oceans
locked by land
not my plan

and they don't know me
like they should know me
like they said they would
and I don't mean it
and they can't see it
like I wish they could

and I'm tired of being here
fading to one with no purpose
all surface
coming undone

did you hear father?
they called my bluff
I'm not so tough
cut my chest open
found a plan
but not the man

and I don't know me
like I should know me
like I thought I would
and they don't mean it
and I can't see it
like I wish I could

and I'm tired of being here
fading to one with no purpose
all surface
coming undone
