lyrics

dear would you be my coat
and when sun isn’t here
can you cover my ears
to keep me from the fear
of your ghost
and spread your eyes to the sea
to freeze the hollow bone trees
and keep innocent eyes from the
rain bleeding skies
if you sit down and die
can you dear

dear would you be my coat
if your heart isn’t dead
but just dying instead
you’re alive in my head
on the coast
and breathe in the dark from the night
I’m scared of leaving your eyes
and if I never die
I don’t need to know why
I will just fantasize in my grave

dear would you be my coat
and sink islands of sand
coming close to your hands
when you said I was banned
from your mind
you are embers of me
i’m afraid to be (like) anything
and if I am just dumb
I don’t know where I’m from
I can sleep in the slums
for a while

dear can you be my coat
in your lemonade soul
can my eyes fill the holes
I just cannot control
myself
and I want to be your only home
but I tremble and shake in my bones
and if I don’t have wings
then I won’t be a king
and I never will be anything at all
