it's all in your back and she likes it
and in your voice she hears her name
there's no other reason for it
but to feel her hands and feel her veins
her knees have met the floor
hey hey
the glow shines through the door
hey hey
indigo kite flying at night
the rags tied around our arms
chase the wind in the field's skin
take me with you
flower bombs grew
into vines around our house
when you sat here
when you bled here
it's all in your back and she likes it
and in your voice she hears her name
there's no other reason for it
but to feel her hands and feel her veins
her knees have met the floor
hey hey
the glow shines through the door
hey hey
indigo kite flying at night
the rags tied around our arms
chase the wind in the field's skin
take me with you
flower bombs grew
into vines around our house
when you sat here
when you bled here
can you undo what's done
to make your hands become
lighter than dust or air
leaving your prints to swear
so you think you know
they've told you so
all of the voices shouting
inject the color in my dreams
so that the light starts pouring
