She was standing in the dark, pockets glowing blue green
In the backyard, in the floating world, on the in between
The day will have its troubles on its own
For the shells of men, not meant to be everything
Can't really be anything that's not given or grown
The violence of it all
Its always risky movement. Stay down, stay still!
In the unseen trying to see behind the outside
There's a beauty in almost everything
How have you not seen a thing?
But instead of getting over she got out
Like a fish made of bricks I fell for you, now I'm sinking too
Her loose teeth moving like piano keys
Getting played from lost memories
Head on the pillow, mind in the clouds
Like a bird looking up for safety, but it has no home to go to
It doesn't know what we know, can't really go where we go
She said: I can't. I can't see. I can't see out of here
So hand in hand we swam across the lake
The water warm against our legs
The only light to find us was the moon
We went all the way
From rock to rock we jumped across across the bay
Half blind we stole each others hearts, we knew we'd be there soon
She was standing in the sparks, pockets glowing blue and green
In her backyard, in the floating world, on the in between
Feet covered in gold, skin blue and glow
Every ray an arm of reaching light
Each road different like the snowflakes in her eyes
Driving somewhere that isn't here
Sleeping in strange cities, our bodies foreign to ourselves, well, what's inside
All glowing bright behind the teeth
Right there, making soft and weak
Instead of getting over she got out
Like a fish made out of bricks I fell for you, now I'm sinking too, just add blue
As long as we're alive me and you, we are love together when we're together
All crazy inside our rib cages, behind our teeth and voice
Taking stars for forest fires our fingers scattered in our fists
Holding on to the films we make, while our legs feed the wolf
Starting with myself. Staring at your teeth
Trying to see what you're saying
Stabbing and pushing your soul through mine
We used to live here, and we will again no doubt
I'll let you try and figure it out, while I figure it out
You had it all. You had it all together. You had it all figured out
I can't. I can't see. I can't see out of here
