lyrics

What am I to say to you?
how long does this velvet rope run through?

during Nate you texted me asking to wait out the storm

I was in the mist of getting home
I couldn’t turn back, back to you
You apologize for the late notice
I should have turned back, back to you

you’re a fireplace and your words are warm

you shed layers revealing, revealing yourself
two moths tranced by each others light
walking through curtains of mist
how do I just glow, just glow like you

stoned fruits
watching your lips
disappearing under the skin of an apricot

feeling like this moment shouldn’t exist
there is no way to know
that we know, that we know

the history of this electric current
buzzes right through me
and it feels so good

refresh me to a new life where I can sleep
tears damp my pillow
and it’s dripping in my dreams
I’m swimming in my head
losing the golden hour
For your dizzy hour

walking through curtains of mist
stoned fruit,watching your lips

spilling on your bedroom floor
can you feel this warm breeze
running under the door ?

high anxiety staring at my ceiling
staring at my palm
blue glow caught in my eye
my metallic sky
spending the night in the east
I’m just trying to pass the time
I’m just trying to pass the time

stop this tape from looping in my head
stop this tape from looping in my head
