lyrics

want to die in the green leaves
among the dirty branches
making me cling to heights
that could never be my own
but i always pretended anyway

sky white sky
hovering and oblivious to me
i chase you just because you don't care
the ground knows me too well
and wants me and waits for me
with gardens for arms
offering to break my fall

and wasn't it you who kissed me
when you knew you were contagious?
for soft madness we all bend
ourselves into different shapes
i wish i could draw you
as pretty as you really are
rose-cheeked smile when you're shy
i love that side of you
but you can never really hide from me
because i know you too well
you burn yourself to stay warm
