lyrics

More coastline to shoot
and no more love to loot
we are lighter for what we lose
like empty hands we bruise

I can tell that you got someone else
to take down off your shelf
someone to keep close
to the spaces you like most

This sunflower bends toward the sun
but I am the moon

Now these creaking dawns
they don’t live long
after restless purple nights
the heavy morning feels wrong

so lets call this a treaty
like in your well lit graffiti
secret artists painting flowers
only in the hidden hours

i’d paint a steady porch
fireworks like a torch
i’d paint a waterfall so tall
that it’d lead up to the stars

i’d paint the red tooth of a peak
like a warm blushing cheek
i’d paint a tower and a car
a few books and a guitar

there were places we got to go
things between we came to know
and now I know what you know
and I will leave it alone
