about

An ode to the feeling of home, and human connection.

lyrics

I see, your face crumble, it lays
With me, inside my night
And waits, for me to wake with it
I feel your bones, Milk white
I smell your hair, it pours a stream
And wait, for me to wake with it

Rain filled my skull, awakened my eyes
I saw you wade in the stream of blue sky
Brown lights that lit your path home from fright
And the mouse covered in shade is peeping out his head tonight,
And I'll go down by the lake where your face is glowing bright,
And I won't know what to say when I see you prancing in the light
Of what brings, me, to you

I won't forget, my size, it melts
My skin, it peels, it shines
And waits, for you to wake with it
I fall, I shake, you run to me
We stay inside, our lives
And wait, for them to wake with us

And the mouse covered in shade is peeping out his head tonight,
And the makings of your braids are singing songs to me in light,
And the wrinkle in my brow is quaking from the sight
Of what brings, me, to you

And you're crawling in my hair, and you're feeling all around
And my hair is falling out, and it's covering the ground
And the sun comes out tonight, and the garden grows again
And I can't escape the fight,
of what brings, me, to you

And the mouse covered in shade is peeping out his head tonight,
And I'll go down to the park and throw a frisbee in the sky,
And your arms will wrap around my body and cover my whole life
Of what brings, me, to you
