Time Capsule Lyrics by Elysian Fields

Pink Air

2018

Mystic yellow buttercup
Like a wand hold it up
To reveal our desires
In our secret hearts
The first time I knew shame
And it gave me a start
Betrayed by nature's golden beam

Trading notes and dressing up
Kissing games and growing up
Skipping ahead
Why couldn't we wait
To gypsy fortunes we'd entrust our fate

I buried a time capsule
Deep in the ground
When I was ten
With my best friend
For a faraway future to find one day
They'd say we wеre alive
We wеre alive

Treasures of then
We sheltered for them
A cracker jack ring and a dandelion stem
The wishes blew off
So we wrote them all down
With the thorn of a rose
In blood it was bound

Shooting pool and throwing darts
Wearing masks and playing parts
I wanna reach for the heart
Of this honeycomb
But it's falling apart
And there's nobody home
The bees are nowhere to be seen
Are they dreaming

Learning love and breaking up
Taking risks and fucking up
Feeling the weight
Feeling the weight

Give the wheel a lively spin
Write the wishes down again
Death knows your name
But you're here just the same
In nature's parlor game

I buried a time capsule
Deep in the ground
When I was ten
With my best friend
For a faraway future to find one day
They'd say they were alive
They were alive

Treasures of then
We sheltered for them
A cracker jack ring, a dandelion stem
The wishes blew off
So we wrote them all down
With the thorn of a rose
In blood it was bound
