For 40 nights we carved a hollow house from one another's skin Say, let our mouths go black from the soot when our little fire gets flooded by kids Could I follow you back to all the stairwells, parking lot kisses Time was I'd gather you sticks in a wintry waltz Say, "I'm walking home" Hear your guts say "I'm walking away" We'd bait the bees with our hair O' Light, take me to a hospital Sew hummingbirds to my heart All the precious and sweet things I was coughing up in a fever that I swore not to recover from They crept into my coffers SongtexteThey crept into my kite strings and punished my clean girl But hopefully someday I'll bury you or maybe someday you'll bury me It's strange to love the person who'll bury you It's strange to love anyone at all O' Light bus me, take me to a knitting room Patch up all my ghosts with bedsheets Aus Songtexte Mania
