Bear On the Beach

Iris in the morning rain, sitting in a sea It's hard to tell the blues apart, She's salty just like me She thinks we're on an island Or she wishes that she were She thinks she hears the sirens But I think it's okay Iris in the morning rain sitting in a sea She didn't wanna see The fruit was out of reach She's caught between the ocean And the bear upon the beach Imaginary waves could never drown you And I didn't want to tell her I didn't want to tell her Iris on a ladder, climbing closer to the sky Rising from the grind, She is a quitter just like I Sitting on a rooftop, Watching molecules collide Safe above it all, She's drinking mercury on ice Iris on a ladder climbing closer to the sky She didn't wanna see The stars were out of reach She's caught between the ocean And the bear upon the beach Imaginary gods could never save you And I didn't want to tell her Didn't want to tell her She didn't wanna see The stars were out of reach She's caught between the ocean And the bear upon the beach Imaginary gods could never save you But I didn't want to tell her I didn't want to tell her
