My love buried its young with
Just one question
It broke the spell
I've bitten my tongue but
It's set in motion

I pulled a rope and rang a bell
When you carved your neural runes into my spine
And then you lowered a light for me to decode them
I dug through miles of tangled earth to say I'd try

In your arms, I'm silver air and sleeping pills
But you draw your tripwires with poison quills
The garden awakes
You're drawing away
I'm drawing my first breath
But roots hold tight like traplines
They carry a lot of weight

Don't save your strength for the end of the dream
All you'll have left is please don't leave
Please don't leave

Easier

We were never meant to be apart
Every step we take is getting harder
For all your promises pinned like ribbons to your bed
Tell me
Why's the ice so thin around you
You say it gets easier to fall right through

Suddenly we felt the night go numb
Stalling as the lightning cut the horizon
And all the miles went dark between the city and the stars
Tell me would you leave our love behind
You say it gets easier to throw the fight

My heart is taking off
