Lyrics

"Please be gone"
You confess, jealous
You've seen a lot, I'm sure
The comas get-go on us like ash

We come blind, kiss
'Cause if they don't kiss, then its a curse
In the dark of such an ocean
When you can't find affection, just swallow the first verse

When your home is not a home
It's hard to be alone

And in the water, I must be adored
I think there's something right here that makes me home
I read this alone
I could drown here
Or just swim stronger
Maybe learn sign language, yeah
Maybe prove my restlessness wrong

So I held the ankles I was hung by
Oh, a pool toy, he took me swimming back and forth here
Said, "We're from the south
And we're sailing among the circus toys"

And it gets hard
Though reasons vary all the time
Please don't go leave her again
All we have left is the night
The night

To learn
To make some noise
All you take me, covered in paint

And in the water, I think I'll have me a daughter
And I think of her into every, every corner of me
And if she gives in a little sooner to the sea
I think I'll accept that, what more than accepting could I be?
I swear

This is the story of a sound that, well, came from underground
And so it lived now
How can you say I never should have grown up this way?
Oh, this is the story of a sound that, well, came from underground
And it's falling faster with all my songs
How could you say I never should have loved someone this way?

Oh, well I never could have disobeyed back then
Oh, don't talk that way
