[Intro] [Wordless, airy vocal] Ah… Drift… Ah… [Verse 1] The hallway tilts a little left The doorframe softens at the seam A cup turns pale beside the sink As if it’s listening in a dream My body leaves a little warmth Upon the place where I have been The air lifts up the quiet dust And carries it through rooms unseen [Pre-Chorus] No floor beneath the hush No hand to hold the edge Only the slow white blur Of something not yet said [Chorus] Porcelain drift Over the blue A fragile shape I almost knew Porcelain drift Quiet and thin The night lets go But doesn’t let me in [Verse 2] A curtain floats without the wind A silver thread unknots the wall The furniture becomes a shore The ceiling lowers like a cloud I pass the mirror without looking It keeps a light I cannot name A small reflection crosses through And leaves the glass exactly plain [Pre-Chorus] No floor beneath the hush No hand to hold the edge Only the slow white blur Of something not yet said [Chorus] Porcelain drift Over the blue A fragile shape I almost knew Porcelain drift Quiet and thin The night lets go But doesn’t let me in [Bridge] If I am floating Let the room stay still If I am falling Let it take its time The pale walls open Then close like eyes I keep on breathing Somewhere inside [Final Chorus] Porcelain drift Over the blue A fading shape I don’t pursue Porcelain drift Soft as a veil The night grows thin The morning stays veiled [Outro] [Wordless harmonies, gradually fading] Ah… Drift… Ah…
