Your Favorite Jacket

(Album: Heal My Head - 2022)

Wait for the sunshine
Wait for the ice to melt
It's been a long one
And this hibernation feels like hell
So give me a feel good
Give me the days that last til 8
Think I'll feel better
In warmer ways

But don't tell the carnivores
We're caught outside
With our hearts wide open
Stuck to the seat on a 16 hour drive
But I'm still hoping

That all my love is true and it's not lost on you
Left in the catacombs
With a hand on my heart and a part of me
Drowning in a palindrome

Because when I got it blue
Yeah it blinds everything
With a chemical shade of rust
Until I'm done placing all of my peace
On the measure of two pressure fronts

Wait for the cool down
Wait for the autumn drives
Your favorite jacket

Pulled from subconscious shelves inside
A chilly morning
To cool our overheated summer heads
Wait for the snowfall
Until we wish it all away again

And again it's the skin we hide behind
In our guarding garments
But the thrill of the heat is the only thing inside
Keeping me honest

If all my love is true and it's not lost on you
Left in the catacombs
With a hand on my heart and a part of me
Drowning in a palindrome

Because when I got it blue
Yeah it blinds everything
With a chemical shade of rust
Until I'm done placing all of my peace
On the measure of two pressure fronts
