Lyrics

The song was on my tongue,
Like every night before.
I knew the ending by the waves —
The pull, the fall, the shore.
We learned the names of sins by sound,
By how they tried to flee.
I never questioned any voice
Until the sea went still in me.
No hopes left tangled in the dark,
No fear within his breath.
Just quiet where the warning should be,
And silence scared me more than death.
I didn’t sing.
I let him breathe.
I let the silence stay.
I didn’t know that mercy
Could learn to kill this way.
The others moved like tides obeyed,
Their voices sharp and sure.
I felt the law inside my chest,
But my voice would not endure.
I told myself: just one mistake,
The sea forgives the small.
I did not see the cities burn,
I did not hear them call.
If evil screams, it’s easy then
To sing and let it drown.
But what if darkness learns to smile
And gently wears a crown?
I saved a man.
I broke a line.
I shifted something old.
The sea remembers every choice,
Even the ones we hold.
I didn’t sing.
I let him breathe.
I let the silence stay.
I didn’t know that mercy
Would ask for more to pay.
The waves went on like nothing changed.
But something followed me.
