Instinct

I had an instinct to run
I had an instinct to fly
We had it all figured out, you and I
Traced endless roads in your skin,
We walked the water we owned
I had an instinct to run,
But I was flesh and bone… for once

Down by the water, she fell
We promised blood to the bone
Dive headfirst into the well,
Where I was welcomed home,
With open arms

I had an instinct to run
I had an instinct to fly
We had it all figured out, you and I
We ran out in colour
We ran down like water
