lyrics

I went to the ocean again with the intent of rinsing my heart out
Mouth open, cold air across my teeth like a Satie melody and it calms me down

I made a shrine for us of driftwood and cherry pits
For the waves to spit and draw into their chaos I know that I let you down

Just like my mother dark eyes lit the lavender hills
Always looking for fire
Always the trace of a stranger

Well I can’t erase the strange pale face by the lake
Still as glass, you spoke and the lake cracked it was deafening
And i can’t shake the ringing from my ears
I still can’t shake this ringing from my ears

Just like my mother I climbed to the top of the hill
We were just looking for fire
In the faces of strangers

But this is where I come from
The grays and the blues
The sly wicked child
And the lavender hills
