Add Blue Lyrics by Listener

Being Empty : Being Filled

2017

She was standing in the dark
Pockets glowing blue-green
In the backyard in the floating world
Of the in-between
The day will have its troubles on its own
For the shells of men
Not meant to be everything
Can't really be anything
That's not given or grown
The violence of it all

It's always risky movement
Stay down, stay still
In the unseen, trying to see behind the outside
There's a beauty in almost everything
How've you not seen a thing but
Instead of getting over she got out
Like a fish made out of bricks
I fell for you
Now I'm sinking too

Her loose teeth moving like piano keys
Gettin' played from lost memories
Head on the pillow
Mind in the clouds like a bird looking up for safety
But it has no home to go to
It doesn't know what we know
It can't really go where we go
She said, "I can't"
"I can't see"
"I can't see outta here"

So hand in hand we swam across the lake
The water warm against our legs
The only light to find us was the moon
We went all the way
From rock to rock we jumped across the bay
Half blind we stole each others' hearts
We know we'd be there soon

She was standing in the sparks
Pockets glowing blue and green
In her backyard in the floating world
On the in-between
Feet covered in gold
Skin blue and glow
Every ray an arm of reaching light
Each road different like the snowflakes in her eyes
Driving somewhere that isn't here
Sleeping in strange cities
Our bodies warm to ourselves
Well what's inside
All glowing bright behind the teeth
Right there making soft and weak
Instead of gettin' over she got out
Like a fish made out of bricks
I fell for you
Now I'm sinking too
Just add blue

As long as we're alive, me and you
We are love together when we're together
All crazy inside our rib-cages
Behind our teeth and voice
Taking stars for forest fires
Our fingers scattered in our fists
Holding onto the films we make
While our legs feed the wolf

Starting with myself
Staring at your teeth
Trying to see what you're saying
Stabbing and pushing your soul through mine
We used to live here
And we will again no doubt
I'll let you try and figure it out
While I figure it out

You had it all
You had it all together
You had it all figured out

I can't
I can't see
I can't see outta here
I can't
I can't see
I can't see outta here
I can't
I can't see
I can't see outta here
I can't
I can't see
I can't see outta here
Well I can't
I can't see
I can't see outta here
