Obedient Shape

If you're gonna wait
Wait till you know that it's safe
Wait till you're sure that it's safe

Then you can't complain
When it feels like you're frozen in place
Feels like you're frozen in place

Taking each day like a torrent of waves
Carving expressions in your stony face
Crushed by sea like it's a routine
(It's a routine, it's a routine)

In that wake is an obedient shape
If you want change, you'll have to learn how to not drown
Till then it seems to have to work itself out

In that wake is an obedient shape
If you want change, you'll have to learn how to not drown
Till then it seems to have to work itself out

To bless distress, I wither away
I try to remember, but I know I can't keep track of the things you say
To bless distress, I wither away
I try to remember, but I know I can't keep track of the things you say
