Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My fingers are the only bones I want here
She takes me when I share my den and turn my tide
She knows I have a tendency
I make mountains out of stones
And without timber, burn a hundred fires
[Verse 2]
I been around and up and down this road before
I've eaten all the seeds he yearned to give
[Verse 3]
When I was born, she made a garland of the broken weeds
I've always worn it and forever she has lived
[Verse 4]
How did you know
When I will go?
When I swim back to blue
I can only tread water
While you tend to my other
She is only lonely for you
[Verse 5]
Back when all her quiet words were thunder
And her answers were all crooked little truths
I was heavy as a hazard
In an unmade bed
Of spinning lies within pyres for my youth
[Verse 6]
How did you know
When I would go?
When I swim back to blue
I can only tread water
While you tend to my other
She is only lonely for you
[Verse 7]
I can build a nest in any scaffold
Dwelling in the reverie I keep
I am traveling in a nightmare
On a map back to the greenhouse
Take me to the garden when my daydreams sleep
[Verse 8]
How did you know
When I would go?
When I swim back to blue
I can only tread water
While you tend to my other
She is only lonely for you
