I guess it's been a long time
I don't even know
Nothing left but splintered bones
And broken hope
Walking down the road
We grew up on
Choking on the roses
But they're grown and gone
Inhaling erosion, I'm sinking, I'm floating
That solemn corrosion, I'll swallow the hope
And I'll hold onto something
And someone will hear the implosion
Aeolian sediments blowing away (Yeah-eah)
Maybe I won't miss those white halls
And those silos
And your wide eyes
(Do you remember me?)
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh
All the pain went when you kissed me
But it was back when I woke up
Winter's always warmer when you're with me
Caught a cross to call my own
In the inverted lattice beneath
I was just trying to calm you down
'Cause this summer I'll be 16 and I still wonder how
Covered in clovers and I'm six feet under now, five leaves aren't enough
This September I'll be leaving, throw the photos on the ground
I should have known, I should have known
Slipping through the cracks, I'm calling it back on you
Shadows shifting, elisions, I'm still in your arms
Cosmic collisions, it's crumbling, falling through
Scaffold splitting, derisions, I'm sealing the hearth (Ah-ah, ooh)
Inhaling erosion, I'm sinking, I'm floating
That solemn corrosion, I'll swallow the hope
And I'll hold onto something
And someone will hear the implosion
Aeolian sediments blowing away
One too many times, I let myself slide
Resin in the hide and it's hopeless
Summit through the sides, I thought of better ties
Brethren tiled the pine on a pulpit
Covered in the sines, I coveted the lies
Nolled up on a lyre, a forfeit
Lauded once or twice, a strath that lead the line
Straffed it to your silage and sold it
If you'd just lie awake
I won't shear no shame (Oh-oh, ah-ah)
Save me, break me
Save me, chain me
All the pain went when you kissed me
But it was back when I woke up
Winter's always warmer when you're with me
Caught a cross to call my own
In the inverted lattice beneath
I was just trying to calm you down
'Cause this summer I'll be leaving
Throw the photos on the ground
I should have known, I should have known (Known)
I guess it's been a long time
I don't even know
Nothing left but splintered bones
And broken hope
Walking down the road
We grew up on
Choking on the roses
But they're grown and gone
