lyrics
I dreamed we were shoulder to shoulder in the backseat wearing puffy coats being driven over a bridge to a funeral for one of our dream-friends’ folks
You kept leaning in to face me and you grabbed for my hand in your gloves
My heart begs to be light but my mind gets dark
Can’t push us into love
When we were living right off of the on ramp the highway would lull you to sleep
It started to feel like the ocean, break light red tide pulled you to dreams
I just heard cars and waves crash in the break wall, sirens around and above
My heart begs to be light but my mind gets dark
Can’t push us into love
There’s a ribbon of white and a ribbon of red tying up the highway under helicopter prayers
My phone’s blowing up from a number I don’t know texting over and over “are you there?”
I’m guessing it’s you; I heard that you moved— your friends keep me filled in enough
My heart begs to be light but my mind gets dark
Can’t push us into love
