lyrics

more interested in the fact
she was talking than what she had to say

her face flushed whiter still from movement
of letters formed recherché
it's that subtle form of complication
that her body can't help but emote

and as she opened her mouth
one last time, she held us all by the throat

well, we,
we like orchards
archers at night

boys will be lead up walls
unknowing of gravity it's safe to say
as it doubles by the pound
for everyone every day

girls will wait atop
just barely out of bounds
from such lofty fortresses
they shout "oh how profound"

names I've heard,
frames I need
the chains invisible
explain my greed
oh the breather
has such mobile lungs
hiding in the stairs
or on the tip of your tongue

hold it up to the light now
like it's a product of such force

separate yourself
into boxes
hidden under the bed
sleep on it
