Fall, plain, blue crowds
Cartoon intros
Islands are cold
But dissolve

Your weary eyes
Cloudy gaze
And the way
Your hand grazed mine

It was never your laugh
You gripped my arm to dance
Thought I found light
I was too unaware

That week
I'm a fool for hoping
Maybe
The world could try
I know you fight and lose
In your mind
I’ll wait

Tighten your fist
To the one
Fire shrieks in your sense
Burns to a numb smile
Clench my breath
As you gasp for innocence
They joke and sing
You tremble in defense

That week
I'm a fool for hoping
Maybe
The world could try
I know you fight and lose
In your mind
