mud

i'm stuck
in the mud of your voice
i lose touch with motion
when you speak to me

you look
like the cigarette smoke
down the road
shapeshift into everything i see

and my cheeks are both blue from me holding my breath
when i'm around you

if you
said that i was your moon
oh, how i'd change through my phases
just for you
just for you

you'd look
to the sky and you'd say
"this is beautiful"
while i wane away

and my cheeks are both blue from me holding my breath
when i'm around you
and my head starts to ache from the swerves that you take
to bring me home

so wave your lonely fingers into mine
as our shoes and the pavement collide
just whisper what is on your mind
'cause this is the kind of thing you can't hide
hide
oh, and my cheeks are both blue from me holding my breath
when i'm around you
and my head starts to ache from the swerves that you take
to bring me home
but if this chair just broke beneath me
i wouldn't cry
'cause i saw it coming in the back of my mind
(can't you see that you and i are everything)
(through my phases i would give you anything)
(i can see that you and i are everything)
(i wish i could be everything you need)
