lyrics

if i see you, i’ll remove you.
i don’t need another dollar hung in front of my eyes.
like a spider web i’m stuck to,
i can never get the thought into the space that i want
i don’t love you like i used to
now i only can when i’m under the cover of night
if i see you, i’ll remove you
i can’t stand to witness one more dream
onto screen
it hurts me

i didn’t stick around because it got hard to see you
every little spiral like a ribbon of light blue
the movement of a hand as a spider to greet you
showing off your fangs because they’re coming in so well
now i have to see you when i look up at the moon
every passing flower is a night spent beside you
i don’t think you knew about the heaven we walked through
cause i never told you

with you gone, i lost myself, i lost myself

if i can then, i will find you.
i’ll use the ash you left behind to make a call in the night.
if i can then, i will find you.
i won’t rest until i hear you

i didn’t stick around because it got hard to see you
every little spiral like a ribbon of light blue
the movement of a hand as a spider to greet you
showing off your fangs because they’re coming in so well
now i have to see you when i look up at the moon
every passing flower is a night spent beside you
i don’t think you knew about the heaven we walked through
cause i never told you

with you gone, i lost myself. i lost myself.
i never
i never told you
