lyrics

Shake your head loudly
All your noises found me
This fire we first let in
It soaks the ground we’re standing in

Let your ghost go
Your shadow takes up too much space
And let the wind blow between the eyes on all your faces

They’ll combine and turn to windows
And the finer things will shade what we have followed
But you were lost and so was I and I was tossed from side to side
With no direction in the tide

And all the lights here have taken what we thought was dark
We were so sincere
Mistaking what we thought were hearts
For smaller islands and unclosed eyelids with no view
They were not moving
You could not feel them inside so

They’ll combine and turn to windows
And the finer things will shade what we have followed
But you were lost and so was I and I was tossed from side to side
With no direction in the tide

Oooooh
