Frayed String & Driftwood

[Intro]
[Verse]
The wood is soft and grey
Beneath the salt and spray
The moon is tucked away
Walking where the ghosts all play
I’ve lost the will to stay
In the light of yesterday
[Chorus]
Oh the string is frayed and thin
Where does the sky begin?
I’m losing all the light within
The kite is folded in its skin
I cannot let the wonder in
To the place where I have been
[Break]
[Verse]
Found it in the drift
A slow and heavy shift
A childhood kind of gift
Tangled in the sandy rift
I feel the spirit lift
Through the cracks and through the sift
[Pre-Chorus]
I used to run so fast
Building things to last
But shadows have been cast
On everything I passed
[Chorus]
Oh the string is frayed and thin
Where does the sky begin?
I’m losing all the light within
The kite is folded in its skin
I cannot let the wonder in
To the place where I have been
[Bridge]
The cello hums a low refrain
Washing out the tired stain
I see the salt upon the wing
A forgotten holy thing
Wonder isn't gone for good
It’s sleeping in the rotted wood
In the grain of every board
Is the music I ignored
[Hook]
Small things stay
Don't look away
In the decay
I find my way
[Chorus]
Oh the string is frayed and thin
Where does the sky begin?
I’m losing all the light within
The kite is folded in its skin
I cannot let the wonder in
To the place where I have been
[Post-Chorus]
It's in the sand
It's in my hand
I understand
This broken land
[Outro]
