lyrics

And
when the wind calls you home
leaving me alone
I'll will try to do as you'd have me do
But there's a midnight sea
calling out to me
sucking me in
inexorably
Are you at peace
Is it a sweet release
Are you cold, afraid
still trying to breathe
I see summer's bones
in the barren trees
Now you're gone
does this world still hold a place for me

So come on, come on, come on
and set me free
I love you, I'm dying
I love you, you're killing me
You're dying, I love you
You're dying, I love you
don't leave me

Summer blooms in your room
And I peel you slowly
in the underwater afternoon
You're a salty sea
swallowing me
sucking me in, inexorably
You're a gold beach
on which I recline
you're on your back
your embrace serpentine
Such a quiet peace
after a sweet release
breathless from racing
to reach the peak.

(Pitchfork (8.0)) ... more
