lyrics
there you are
belly up, my dying star
stuck in the mud
afraid of some love
heaven knows
that it's time
for heaven's sake
don't you say never mind
I checked twice
you are mine
oh why do you still stand
you know who just I am
go trample some leaves
it's the sound that you need
I like this
sleepy nest
keeps me still
sticks with me the best
don't act like you signed
some dark dotted line
the others would just keep me
to leave me
except you and your family
all my body weighs me down
makes a broken brittle sound
you effortlessly
then dive in after me
at first it's all black
but then it hits a release of slack
I awaken in awe
watch you unclench your jaw
and though no ideal
is discovering us
you've gained all of my trust
the others would just keep me to leave me
believing in what they did not really feel
it's revealed
belly up, my dying star
stuck in the mud
afraid of some love
heaven knows
that it's time
for heaven's sake
don't you say never mind
I checked twice
you are mine
oh why do you still stand
you know who just I am
go trample some leaves
it's the sound that you need
I like this
sleepy nest
keeps me still
sticks with me the best
don't act like you signed
some dark dotted line
the others would just keep me
to leave me
except you and your family
all my body weighs me down
makes a broken brittle sound
you effortlessly
then dive in after me
at first it's all black
but then it hits a release of slack
I awaken in awe
watch you unclench your jaw
and though no ideal
is discovering us
you've gained all of my trust
the others would just keep me to leave me
believing in what they did not really feel
it's revealed
