lyrics

You made me your prince
Instead of making me over
I had the bandage on for so long
I forgot what was broken
We stand together in the clearing
With you, I feel the debris settling into possibilities
With you, I feel the debris settling into possibility

But oh, I miss my southern queens
And their spring fed dreams
And roots that steep up to cypress knees
And all the weight of everything
Comes more than goes
On bending bodies
With so much to hold

I want to know home
And my voice wants its own body
When I’m alone staring up at a freckled ceiling
I can’t seem to think much else of anything
Oh, I can’t seem to think much else of anything
Oh, I can only be
