lyrics
Did you rip out all the stitches hoisting images above?
In your spinning storm, in sticky flashes swarming at your form.
But if you crawled out bleeding there could be a pulse by morning
And a lighter in your first to torch a broken story.
Then you rise, beautiful, you rise.
The world I promise you dissolves in its desire
With constellations crawling back together, trailing cords of light
To let your name come flaming back to life.
All the time, when you wake up worried on the other side,
A wilder sea of stars is yours to mystify.
But look at how you've parted mine.
If you want to fill the air with truth,
It will listen, closely as I do.
If you want to feel their eyes on you,
They're so dizzy gazing your way too.
If you want to make them ache for you,
They already love you like I do.
They already love you like I do.
