you know you have a way with your hands when you're holding, shifting, turning me around i can't say it, but, it's the feeling that keeps on keeping on keeping me around one day you'll be 80 and i'll be 65 i haven't a doubt in my mind that i'll always remember your eyes one day you'll be 80 and i'll be 65 i haven't a doubt in my mind that i'll always remember your eyes

a thousand glittering skies couldn't calm my night frights if i kept on all of my clothes could i still stay the night and i pity the fall, i fear nothing at all you already told me you'd never love me and i broke the mirror last night i dug the shards into my eyes make me something pretty so unlike me i know where this is going, the sweat on your forehead i know where this is going, fists all red and your eyes sizzling i know where this is going and i pity the fall, i fear nothing at all you already told me you'd never love me and i broke the mirror last night i dug the shards into my eyes make me something pretty so unlike me

walking upon steady beats your heart pumping the wells behind my eyes and my face isn't waterproof you don't mind, you kiss me every time the sky was grey and the rain lavender, i sway o'er the fields you walk me through could it be you could it be you could it be you but love can't come so easy you can take your time to learn me i will trace the lines between your teeth you can make me feel less empty but love can't come so easy you can take your time to learn me i will trace the lines between your teeth you can make me feel less empty come and take me in my daydreams feel my body writhing shifting turning holy holding if you'd like, maybe some time some time some time

Blue 03:29
cover me in blue i need more nights spent inside of you and i've never clung to anyone like that before and i don't have my words, but when i do, i'll be sure to thank you and i don't have my words, but when i do, i'll say i love you too, i'm sorry, i love you too and i can feel my heart breaking i can feel my soul shaking and i've never clung to anyone like that before and i don't have my words, but when i do, i'll be sure to thank you and i don't have my words, but when i do, i'll say i love you too, i'm sorry, i love you too and you still loved me when my hair was wet and when my face was bare and when my clothes were off and you still loved me when my hair was wet and when my face was bare and when my clothes were off and i don't have my words, but when i do, i'll be sure to thank you and i don't have my words, but when i do, i'll say i love you too, i'm sorry, i love you too

i'm sorry for the bags under my eyes, i was awake all night trying to synchronize my breath to yours. and in a way, it was still resting. the sun rose and birds started to sing, i watched the window turn from the midnight to the morning grey. practice is a heavy song - its heartbeats and steady symphony have a way of swaying and encompassing you. i let you have the good pillow. i wonder how you laid when your body began to change, where your chest was too sore to sleep on your stomach, your valleys and mountains and great plains spanning further, the bed becoming smaller, the weather getting stronger, but it's not a crisis, it's mother earth. we shift at the same time, i follow the softest lines my legs cross and i rub my feet together. my fingers trace the waves in the air, inhale gently - barely there - exhale like a tide to drift away. now an incandescent glow kisses the flesh above the blanket. it's warmer now, you turn over. i let you have the good pillow.

you told me about living in a dream i caught something in your wicked reveries i drank the water as we swam upstream i pull my lips together and i think about your teeth the sun rose between my thighs i felt the warmth behind your eyes your heart is there all on your sleeve i'm there pulling at the stitching so can i call you my baby tonight only if for a night i can't see my body right i can't see another night you told me about living in a dream i caught something in your wicked reveries
