In the End, Ariadne was the Ocean

I swim in your depths
They stay on the coast
They kiss your lips
And I swallow you whole
I live in your breath
They hold their own
I wake you from death
They cover you with stones

And here on this pier
Where I draw you near
The world still holds on to
Erasers
So don't fear, let's be clear
When they call you home
It's to destroy what is dear
To your heart and your bones

But I'll teach you to lie
When they ask if you're calm
Give you the sky
As they extend dirt-filled palms
I'll keep you, my ocean
Through your storms and your faults
And you'll never feel hopeless and
Never be lost.
