lyrics

Eight legs never scared you that much
now you have to make a peace treaty just to go to sleep
now nine steps and your childhood leaks through
charcoal and lavender and a birthday in an empty room

But that roof was way too tall I couldn't think when I got up there
when you asked me how I felt I felt it all
Now morning has just broke and the sun is playing tiptoe
on our backs and I fell off

If you called me fortunate Id believe every word you say and
every breathe in between
but how can you love so soft so distant so uninterrupted
I said something I don't mean

We can come back from this

And now morning has just broke and the grass is weeping with me
