City By The Sea (feat. Roomful of Teeth)

I am a city by the sea

sinking into a toxic tide

I am strange to myself, as though someone unknown

had poisoned my mother as she carried me. I

t's here in all the pieces of my shame

that I find myself again.

I yearn to belong to something,

To be contained, as a single thing.

I yearn to be held

in the hand

of your heart.

Oh let them take me now.
