Lyrics
Sigh, reverie, I can’t breathe
these arms surround me
wait, go slow i can’t see
these dreams are pounding
How did it feel at once when you had it all?
Cuz everybody knows that waves come in intervals
You gotta close your eyes and jump, you can trust the fall
C’mon hitch a ride it feels like a carnival
Stand, expose your hand
love picks up speed
in broken moments
wait, reverse
My precious fixation
it has taken over
How did it feel at once when you had it all?
Cuz everybody knows that waves come in intervals
You gotta close your eyes and jump, you can trust the fall
C’mon hitch a ride it feels like a carnival
You complete the memory
design the world it ought to be
they set their sights and sailed to sea
and cast away captivity
designed machines, the stronger swam
the smaller ones with tiny hands
their fingers stretched around their necks
And held so tight, they did not fall
I held myself above and below (oh the precious souls)
I took a breath and watched it explode (they really got it all, they got it all)
And if i fall apart in my dreams (oh the precious souls)
I’ll stay awake until i believe
They pulled their pockets as they hit the ground
light between the blinds slips into my mind and i hold it closer
now define what you see and then make it over
