[Verse 1] I come through the left ear, warm as a tide Lay my cool hand where your heartbeat hides I loosen the room, I tilt every wall You feel me arrive before you can call I comb through your colors, I soften their seams Turn the corners to petals, the petals to streams You think you are drifting, you think you let go I’m the pull underneath you, I’m the undertow [Pre-Chorus] I rise up You feel me Your breath slows down Your skin says stay I blur the border I lift the ground You lean to the ripple I turn you around [Chorus] I am the wave in your body I am the wave in your body I move you, I mold you I am the wave in your body Too deep to hold Too wide to name I speak through your pulse I carry the flame [Verse 2] Now I strike through your knees with a low wooden knock I rattle your ribs like a hand on a dock Cicadas climb up through the green of your mind I circle the world till the edges unwind Gold geometry opens wherever I roll I bend what you trusted, I loosen your hold You call it a second wave breaking the shore I am the first one—you’re feeling me more [Pre-Chorus] You thought you could measure The depth of this sea But the sky in your chest Keeps opening for me Birds cut through the color like sparks in the rain I bloom through your senses, I loosen your name [Chorus] I am the wave in your body I am the wave in your body I move you, I mold you I am the wave in your body Too deep to hold Too wide to name I speak through your pulse I carry the flame [Bridge] Five minutes? An hour? I stretch every seam Your arms turn to water Your bones learn to dream Then I hush the whole room I quiet the air Mandalas turn where Your thoughts used to flare [Final Chorus] I am the wave in your body I am the wave in your body I bring you back breathing I am the wave in your body Soft as the tide Strong as the rain I pass through your pulse Then rise up again [Outro] You’re already here So ride where I steer I loosen the edges I carry you clear I am the wave in your body I ebb, I return
