Peinture

Break out tonight
And wash away the soil
I couldn't bear it if you hid a thing from me

Fade out to light
And fuck this mortal coil
I can't imagine being parted by the sea

And I will sing for you
The happiest of songs to help you sleep
And in the distance all the world is humming by
But we'll keep

Wait, I'm out on the tiles
And I don't feel the same
Could you forgive me if I ever lost my way?

Eighty thousand smiles
And every one of them a flame
That tells us everything we ever need to say

And maybe one day
Like a leaf that's blown away, you'll have to go
So hold me close that somehow time would stop for us
Or just slow
