Lyrics
Orbits & Lace
It happened just as the weatherman said
now the snow swirls around the lamp
like the flies do in the summertime
and the tender ground smiles
And we both move in our circles
As I wait for you to seep from my skin
Dance me into the Darkness of each Dawn
We’ve started defining with negative space
turning people into excuses
funny how a street sign brings such comfort
did I cut you with my tongue again?
And we both move in our circles
As I wait for you to seep from my skin
Dance me into the Darkness of each Dawn
Round and round, retracing footprints
dizzied by the orbits and lace
the mounds are moving,
but I’ve already lost my balance
And we both move in our circles
As I wait for you to seep from my skin
Dance me into the Darkness of each Dawn
