about

Fourth track from the Molt EP.

lyrics

I felt it coming
The pressure built up
In my stomach
And my blood was running
The sun was pulsing
Above the hill
And the clouds were sulking
And resting so still
Still the sound of something
Droning in the distance
Just a tranquil humming
Giving the background colour
That shadow stands alone
Like a windmill
Tilting in a gust
And spans the land
Like a laughing crow
And my hair stands
On my back
As it passes over
Like someone tipped
That glass of smoke
Let the past go
You don't have to go fast
You just have to play
The next note
I still try
It's still me on the inside
The same eyes
Under the same winter
Midnight star shine
With a spring mind
And a fear of flying
And oceans
I stay low and dry
I held a torch
To the night sky
And if you squint your eyes
You can see a million fires
Burning right beside
It's an endless sight
And if you chose one now
I would climb
Into the dark
Just to bring you down
That spark of light
What if the stars are ice?
What if they're just holes
In the top of the jar
And we're just bugs
Who forgot how to fly?
Beating these drums
Like our old wings
From an old life
Breathing with lungs
Like rings in a tree trunk
That absorb time
Chase, chase
I leave it all
Chase, chase
I leave it all behind
The sleepless nights
The dream
That place
Chase, chase
I leave it all behind
