Copper Fjord III (Version 2)

Verse

Black water moving on the wall of stone

Copper dust rising when we walk alone

The tide pulls closer as the horns go low

Every step we take is the only path we know

Hands find hands in the amber light

Salt and smoke are clearing out the night

We don't need a reason, we just need to float

Where the current takes us, that's where we go

Pre-Chorus

Do you feel it pulling at your chest?

The water's rising, let it do its best

Something ancient is stirring in the deep

Is this what they call surrender or relief

Chorus

We're falling into copper fjord tonight

Where the current takes us feels just right

Every weight we carry slips away

Beneath the surface of that golden bay

So let your shoulders drop and let go now

The current's carrying out everything you'd prove somehow

Verse 2

Kelp and lanterns drifting in the tide

Something ancient is rising underneath the divide

Rust on the chain link, gold in your hair

Every worry down there that we don't need to carry

Bones remember what the heart forgets

The deep knows what it means to let go yet

Pre-Chorus

Do you feel it pulling at your chest?

The water's rising, let it do its best

Something ancient is stirring in the deep

Is this what they call surrender or relief

Chorus

We're falling into copper fjord tonight

Where the current takes us feels just right

Every weight we carry slips away

Beneath the surface of that golden bay

So let your shoulders drop and let go now

The current's carrying out everything you'd prove somehow

Bridge

It's not falling under — it's falling through

Everything we needed is already new

Underneath the black there's a river of light

We just need to stop fighting the tide tonight

Chorus

We're falling into copper fjord tonight

Where the current takes us feels just right

Every weight we carry slips away

Beneath the surface of that golden bay

So let your shoulders drop and let go now

The current's carrying out everything you'd prove somehow
