lyrics

In the sun, paint peeling on my windowpane and
I can contemplate the buzzing in the lines between us
A fiction, a windblown city and the ghosts
Of countless actions I wouldn't ever recognise
Now I put my faith in higher numbers

I dream in crystal spires
Dead seas and ritual bonfires
In elegant chains of thought
If I cared about what I’ve got
I’d try to make things better for us
But I settled for her
From death back to birth
I settled for her

If I could taste, just once
A little passion I would happily meet my maker
The quinine trickles down
And this could be the fever talking now
But I put my faith in higher numbers

I tried to make out
Things were safe
