lyrics

The blue beetle crawled 'cross the serpentine floor
A blur at the window drew lines to my eyes
The floor has returned to it's sleeping wood state
The beetle no more, oh the blue has seeped away

I hear you calling like a guitar under the sea
Dream-like I followed, to your side of the street
Your song has cut through tissue and bone
Is this what I've waited for

You've honeyed my seams
But loneliness runs deep
You've wrought the air with silver
You've led me to believe

Circles are moving their lines through the skies
A stain that is marking this piece of our lives
We're creatures in love with the art and the field
And god knows our ears, tangled in the wild wood

What grain persists in a dark heart that rests
Doubts curl like smoke into shadows better left
To feel their way from this chambered bell
Is this what I'm waiting for

You've honeyed my seams
But loneliness runs deep
You've wrought the air with silver
You've led me to believe

What have you done to me
The air is split with silver,
You've led me to believe
