lyrics

Slept through seven mornings
woke up with my mind a fake
slowly recoalescing into
what I left when I was last awake

The name is so gigantic
a color one could only dream up
move myself around, but whether
in or out of bed I'm just as stuck

Walk through severed endings
a cavern carved in cold landscape
geometry more sacred than we thought hangs clear in uninterpretable shapes

The name is hardly real, though
the color's not gonna mean a thing
when face-to-face, but from feet way
I'm forced again with no choice but to sleep

Oh, the room caught fire
and I'll be gone till it's put out

Simmering in cotton
cast against a static spring
dryly, in a crimson drape
your eyes meet mine and I can't help but sing

You hushed me in an instant
like an anti-incendiary quilt
still the room caught fire then, and scattered
'mid the ashes my intentions wilt

Oh, the flames rose higher
and I'll see, through smoke, you made your way out

I know, I know, that the flames will roar
I know, I know, no one's keeping score
and I know, I know, 'cuz my hands are sore
and I know, I know, it's been said before

But your eyes, your ears, your head, and your hair
your smile, your lilt, your gait, and your stare
your arms, your legs, and, I bet, your shoes
your thoughts, your lips, your fingers move

I know

And I'll be gone till I figure this out
till I figure this out
