lyrics

we share a chrysalis one night
from upside down the sky turns bright
my eyes are much too dark I think
I'm going blind for real this time

and I'm scared of changing shape
of losing sight of my own hands
that break the branches
as you hand them to me
I'm not myself

when you're waking up
with the dreams still there
before your eyes
what are the pictures
that you keep of me?
where are the threads
connecting everything?
I know what you are thinking
your body is sore
from breaking with mine
and tearing the silk
that held us taut
from trees
