lyrics
Frayed
I want to remember you in exactly this light
Oozing through the window as day bleeds into night
Forget about the chemicals like a hurricane
Seeping in through plastic tubes bubbling in your veins
Laying on this orange couch sleeping like a cat
Everything will melt away with you here in my lap
I will snap a photograph of this space in time
Lock it like a silo a bomb inside my mind
Press your head into my chest
Inside this house we made
There’s always a hook in my heart
Tugging till I’m frayed I’m afraid
Looking out into the yard at the swirling leaves
I need to clean things up before it starts to freeze
I am turning back the clock smashing it in pieces
Hoping I can stem this tide battering our beaches
Stroking your hair softly as your muscles twitch
I think about the course we’ve carved and I start to drift
When the sunlight crawls away we begin to wake
Sad I let you sleep so long but you say it’s okay
Press your head into my chest
Inside this house we made
There’s always a hook in my heart
Tugging till I’m frayed I’m afraid
