Miranda (Pacifically) Lyrics
We wiped out at the start
We washed up on different beaches
Seasick after the storm
I know no bottle can reach you
No message will right these wrongs
Put a shell to your ear
All you'll hear is the roar
Of the thousands of lovers who came before
And of oceans that don't give a damn about us
You're the piece that won't weave in straight
Burr in my hair, rock in my shoe
Year after year after year I think about you
Wave upon wave upon wave at your door
Put a shell to your ear
All you'll hear is the roar
Of the thousands of lovers who came before
And of oceans that don't give a damn about us
I feel your rage
You thought I was faking it
Nothing I say will repair
But know I'm as true to you as I am able
Know you still trouble me, burr in my hair
Put a shell to your ear
All you'll hear is the roar
Of the thousands of lovers who came before
And of oceans that don't give a damn
Oceans that don't give a damn about us
We washed up on different beaches
Seasick after the storm
I know no bottle can reach you
Put a shell to your ear
All you'll hear is the roar
Of the thousands of lovers who came before
And of oceans that don't give a damn about us
Burr in my hair, rock in my shoe
Year after year after year I think about you
Wave upon wave upon wave at your door
All you'll hear is the roar
Of the thousands of lovers who came before
And of oceans that don't give a damn about us
You thought I was faking it
Nothing I say will repair
But know I'm as true to you as I am able
Know you still trouble me, burr in my hair
All you'll hear is the roar
Of the thousands of lovers who came before
And of oceans that don't give a damn
Oceans that don't give a damn about us

From Tanya's Bandcamp: "Saw The Tempest performed in a local park recently -- a morally complicated story with loose ends. I had this great piece of music from Michael Hearst waiting for me, and this was one of those “the lyrics wrote themselves” situations, inspired by the stranded souls of that play. (It's not sung in Elizabethan English, don't worry.) Other things crept in too, because most songs are about more than one thing."
