lyrics
I found a girl who would bring me tiger balm and water lilies. The idea of discovering a common language has always fascinated me. You might have been a savant of love, rolling around yelling in the grass and touching me with your feet. But the comedown from a runners high is the fastest thing I've known. In my newfound boldness I abandoned you to geography and put on a better fitting life. I imagined you picking leaves off a tree and calling them sister when I locked up your dreams as a city. My shoulders still fade sometimes from the shame of crushing a crystal with the weight of palpable time. I stopped telling stories, and this is me, failing to apologize like the autumn wind. I know a gaze can't heal the land.
