Benthos

The heat's begun to wane,
Still I'm pretty much the same.
I'm doing my best to snap out,
But I'm stuck in this dream.
Rattling the windows,
Why don't I stay inside?
The weight of my eyes breaks my legs.

Just between you and I,
I want to build something tonight.
While there's still bright spark,
Burning behind my eyes.

Drag my knuckles and crave
The sweet embrace of linen and sheet
Sleep you're precious to me,
Yet we hardly ever meet.
Why don't you come and sing?
This ill-fated evening,
The dawn and anxiety.

Surely you didn't expect much more
Than a lopsided grin?
Knocking down your front door.
Where the second hand stops,
Stumble and fall
And I'm all wrong,
But by Christ you look nice in the brightening morning light.

Just between you and I,
I want to build something tonight.
While there's still bright spark,
Burning behind my eyes.

Just between you and I,
I want to build something tonight.
While there's still bright spark,
Burning behind my eyes.
