a note on the crisis

written by Dani-Rae & Em

lyrics

I asked the atlantic when my time is gonna come
i asked the atlantic when our time is gonna come
i asked the atlantic for to call my baby home
she said honey now
your time ain't come and gone

i know that she loved me like the moon pulls in the tide
i carry round her photograph 'cause it makes for shorter nights
and when i held her face between my palms i could see the water rise
and i saw that she loved me like the moon pulls in the tide

theres a curse on the town where i come from
and that plague has taken so many i love
the city's dark and sobbing still with a terror overcast
seems i run away just to take the long walk back

if i freeze and panic will you kneel down next to me
if i freeze and panic will you softly help me see
that when i freeze and harden please remind me that i'm free
you're the salt that gives way to warm waters underneath

so i asked the atlantic when my time is gonna come
i asked the atlantic when our time is gonna come
i asked the atlantic for to please let me come home
she said honey now
you're time ain't come and gone
