Aurelia
And that the world is always our fault
When we did nothing, how did we do wrong?
When we did nothing, how did we do wrong?
Aurelia paused in her sweeping of debris to look up at the crow's nest, using her hand to shield her eyes from the sun. She watched in surprise as the girl happily made her way up to those weird vaporous creatures. This world was so opposite to the one Aurelia knew, it was insane. It wasn't even noon yet and there she was, witnessing some strange new thing once again.
In her distraction and frazzle, she accidentally tipped the whole bucket of water over. She moved to catch the lip, to keep it from spilling any more. But the sudsy water was quicker and slicker; her foot slipped. She fell ass-first into the water and the mop careened into the air. The water had poured in one impressive sweep across the main deck thanks to the power she'd unintentionally put behind it, which was sure to earn her some unhappy glares.
Her entire expression had fallen into one of complete and utter annoyance. She brought her hand up to wipe a splash of soap off her face but, her whole hand was soaking wet and soapy. With an aggravated sigh, she let it flop back into the puddle that surrounded her.

And I've been thinking that when we thought
The world would break us, that we weren't wrong
The world would break us, that we weren't wrong
