Eve of the Fall Lyrics by Black Bear (Band)

The Cinnamon Phase

0

I saw her first soft in
A fleet of metal hearts
I ached to see her in the greenhouse light
And feel her size
Here we go
(Here we go)
Fresh-faced freedom
(Fresh-faced freedom)
Eve of the fall
(Eve of the fall)
New smell season
(New smell season)
A combustible concoction
Erupts and we both fall backwards
I'm sorry but I am reeling from what she says she thought I thought
Here we go
(Here we go)
Fresh-faced freedom
(Fresh-faced freedom)
Eve of the fall
(Eve of the fall)
New smell season
(New smell season)
It comes down to the fabric from which we are cut
The strength of the stitch with which we sew ourselves up
It's a matter of fact no patterns perfectly match
So for betterment become a veteran of the clash
She bears the weight of what her parents will think
She inherits the jinx of having different instincts
I'm not superstitious but when she faces west
I'll make wishes on the nape of her neck
From the crossroads of hope and regret
I'll go out where the skyscrapers are scraping the sky
And make just enough paper to pay for supplies
We'll build camps on the coast to clear my head and my hands
Answer only to the grandmother ghost of the lands
We share the weight of a whale in our arms
As we wait for a failure that never-fail comes
Life is complicated, awesome and so inexact
Sometimes it's so good I almost could crack
Sometimes it knots up the small of my back
