Girth Impression Lyrics

the swollen dreams of each shape and size

i pictured them adorned in black and white

but they bend themselves now instead of bloom

and spend each night howling at the moon

it was a mess but it was ours, it wasn't emptiness

it was a mess but it was ours, it was ours to fix

(patterns don't predict)



four hands and feet were tethered in their sleep

untied apart so that our eyes won't meet

i don't raise my voice, i don't stand too proud

i don't own a shovel, i don't stir the ground

it was a mess but it was ours, it wasn't emptiness

it was a mess but it was ours, it was ours to fix

(patterns don't predict)



i was fixed, i was stuck in place

(you don't speak too loud)

deaf to all, no time of day

i was fixed, i was stuck in place

(or i don't hear too well)

deaf to all, no time of day



we're ten people at once

with ten places to be

just a crisis of youth

just a crisis of youth



four hands and feet were tethered in their sleep

untied apart so that our eyes won't meet

i don't raise my voice, i don't stand too proud

i don't own a shovel, i don't stir the ground

it was a mess but it was ours, it wasn't emptiness

it was a mess but it was ours, it was ours to fix



i inflate your lungs, i remove the doubt

i move the air in and out, in and out

i inflate your lungs, i remove the doubt

i move the air in and out, in and out



but this sadness will not consume me

i won't let it, i won't let it



these are all the nights

i will not forget, i will not forget

i'm old but now we're young

make the best of it, make the best of it

suspended like a moon above, hanging there

that takes it's time coming down

these are all the nights

i will not forget, i will not forget
