i'm swimming in it
i'm swimming out to you
for reasons, my reasons

so photograph it
the milky way it
spills into the hand and dries

i am here now
and i'm staying put
for reasons, my reasons

and so to bed, to bed
my soul to share
an island of the brave
my soul to save

in hopes that God's awake
my soul to take

i'm swimming in it
i'm swimming out to you
for reasons to be home

so photograph me
in milky white dreams
spill into my head

and when i hold you like
tomorrow you might die
well, that's because you might

but i am here now
and i'm staying put
for reasons my heart knows

and so to bed, to bed
my soul to share
an island of the brave
my soul to save

in hopes that God's awake
my soul to take
