Carnation

(album: Willowbank - 2017)

Pull the sheets over your head
Not a minute more until the hope is dead
I'm the rope that broke your breath
Wore you out until there was no wonder left

I'll turn back and take a night to see if you feel
Like somebody can allow you to be unreal
Always wanted something I could weigh so
We could be the ones to lay low
In the distance changing at the daylight
Saving all the waiting for your wildfire

Taste the blood enter your teeth
Not the kind to come around eventually
Made my way through city scenes
At the time this all meant so much more to me

Pick a side, 'cause you know you're alone
Either way you'll be losing out on us
And you say that you're gonna get me
Would you give it a shot?

I'll turn back and take a night to see if you feel
Like somebody can allow you to be unreal
Always wanted something I can weigh so
We could be the ones to lay low
In the distance changing at the daylight
Saving all the wind for your wildfire

I know you've got a plan to hold
But I can't remind myself I'm all alone
Waiting for the pace to take me by the throat
I can't let you win, I can't let you win

Pull the sheets over your head
Not a minute more until the hope is dead
I'm the rope that broke your breath
Wore you out until there was no wonder left

I'll turn back and take a night to see if you feel
Like somebody can allow you to be unreal
Always wanted something I can weigh so
We can be the ones to lay low
In the distance changing at the daylight
Saving all the waiting for your wildfire
