lyrics

I’ve been a fell tree
A hurricane afraid to fail
Digging for who I used to be
I’ve been the dirt under your nails

Our eyes a neon sign
Our hearts a swept front porch
Our hands scraping in the sky
Our mouths shouting for more

Oh there’s colors that you’ve never seen
You don’t need a name for everything you do
I say “I don’t know who I’m supposed to be”
You say “There’s no such thing as ‘supposed to’”

Just out of view outside
They wait for you you’ll find
Impatience gets the best rebuke
No rest when you’re hanged up by your shoes

Our eyes a neon sign
Our hearts a swept front porch
Our hands scraping in the sky
Our mouths screaming for more

There’s colors that you can’t perceive
You don’t need a name for everything you do
I say “I don’t know who I’m supposed to be”
You say “There’s no such thing as ‘supposed to’”
And what do I know what do I say when they come asking?
Every equation incomplete
Every sentence fragmenting
Like the gap in between where we’re standing

And all that I have left are words trapped in a void
With echoes keeping company to thoughts that I avoid
The colors start to bleed and now all that I see
are the stains of my days as they pass me
And how should I know what’s actually happening
When I can’t discern what I see from in a dream?
It’s all in my head, try to keep it open
But now that seals been broken through

There’s colors that you’ve never seen
You don’t need a name for everything you do
I say “I don’t know who I’m supposed to be”
You say “There’s no such thing as ‘supposed to’”
And what do I know what do I say when they come asking?
Every equation balancing
Every sentence fragmenting
Like the gap in between where we’re standing
