Clam Shell Dreams (Indie Folk)

[Verse] I live in a shell it's quiet and still The waves crash above but I feel no thrill Under the sand where the light barely creeps I dream of the stars but I sink in the deep [Chorus] Clam shell dreams holding me tight Hiding from the world in the pale moonlight I open I close but I never feel free Is there a pearl inside of me [Verse 2] Saltwater thoughts they weigh me down A spiral of silence no one around Barnacles cling but they don’t hear my song How long can I stay where I don’t belong [Prechorus] I whisper to the tide But it never replies [Chorus] Clam shell dreams holding me tight Hiding from the world in the pale moonlight I open I close but I never feel free Is there a pearl inside of me [Bridge] Driftwood floats by like a passing chance A fleeting moment a silent dance Seagrass sways but I stay still Caught in the current against my will
