Lyrics
let’s turn the morning light
from nightmare to grace
our eyes’ll adjust if it’s too bright
but don’t you try to catch my face
underneath
the layers of velvet I sleep in
shall i reveal to you what i like to do
when i can’t feel anything despite this hand on my head
it’s up to you to tell me who you
are in this dream of mine i have every night
underneath
the layers of velvet i sleep in
call me tonight
maybe i can turn off the lights
i won’t blame you if you don’t show up to my door
undo your grip
around my soul
(every night)
why say things untold from the silence of our heads
to find ourselves old counting our regrets
chasing a faint light that gives nothing in return
if i pretend do i lie? i want it on my terms
can we please
try to finish this story
