lyrics

the seasons change, and it brings me under
spring-time light muting winter colors
i'll write my name out on a thousand brown leaves and let the wind take a thousand parts of me

wind's picking up and it throws me around
baseball noises drowning tiny winter sounds
there are no boundaries, now my blood is caseless
we're losing our autonomy, stuck in these small spaces

oh, how close we must be now to the culmination
centuries of indecency and lovelessness
iron arms from underneath approach the surface
the ground is shaking at our feet
what the fuck do we do?
we will host the parasites and break ourselves down
leaving ego in the dirt
somehow, moving heavenward
i want that comfort from your voice
it is not the right sound
oh, my god, i can't believe we put such beautiful things underground

but dust in your hair is falling down to your cheekbones
and dust on your fingertips stuck to my teeth and to my tongue
we're so far gone

safe on your fire skin, my fingertips trace rivers of crimson blood from your neck down your arms
safe where we are, for now
i'm safe in my skin, right now
safe on your ice cold skin, my fingertips trace rivers of bold blue blood to your heart from your veins
safe where we are, for now
i feel safe in my skin, right now
safe on your shaking skin, my fingertips make letters of honesty all down your body
safe where we are, for now
i feel safe in my skin, right now
safe at each other's sides, my fingertips make terrible, loose braids in incredible hair
safe where we are, for now
i feel safe in my skin, right now

but when you come down, will it be okay?
will it still feel like the sound of your name?
and if i come up, will we be the same?
i could lose you inside of my brain.
