lyrics

See she moves in colors through the air
She's taking breaths, I stop and stare
I can't contain myself from a femme fatale

Now she moves in music flowing white
Melodic bruises fill her smile
I see her walking in my imaginary aisle

I'll get out there's nothing to it

Wonder consumes me by the night
And every time I feel alright
I take a step and then I breathe another breath and then I
Fall through rabbit holes, loose my control
I'm growing ten feet tall, are you used to this?
I'm only learning how to live
This is how I realize that if I die

I'll fall right through that hole again
I'll lose my soul again
And if you're back by my side
I think I'll feel alright
See the moon spills in buckets
And if you put out too much
You won't want to get up again
To see the sun shine

Sticks and stones may break my nimble bones
And you keep playing with my ear drums
Till I let out a cry and I say

Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum

If it's true to me
I'll let all the anger out and you'll see
She flows through the air
Silently and softly everywhere
