lyrics

I'm an orphan, a ship at sea
I'm the Lost, the Refugee
Got a broken soul, bloody knees
I need your love

Like a beggar, like a hungry babe
Like a desert plant for desert rain
Like a dissident for deeper change
I need your love (I need it)

Make a home in your heart
Cuz I'm coming in
I come hell or high water to where you begin
Don't pull away love
Don't make me swim
We're not islands, you and I
We're friends

I'm a vessel, a jar of clay
You can fill me up or let me break
I'm no raincloud, I can't end this drought
But maybe I could be poured out

Like a trickle from a crack of stone
I won't die if you leave me alone
But I'm an echo, someone else's groan
I don't want to be my own

We're not islands
