lyrics

It’s so unbearably clean
I dream that you intervene
I reach you for, I push my hand into the seam
We need to be touched more than be seen

I wish I could trade desire
And all the guilt you’ve acquired
All the good you tried backfired
I can see it’s made you so tired

I’ll give you everything
I’ll tell you all I know
If these white and peaceful wings
Can ever bring me home

I have never felt cold
I’m safe and warm and controlled
I wish I could feel the fear you have of getting old
Don't let your secrets go untold

You’ll say goodbye to me
Inside my fever dreams
I promise you will see
Me blooming, bright, and gleaming
