๐ Lyrics
The chimney swifts are scratching at the sky again
Dusk weighs heavy and blue on the leaves
I am at my loneliest when you're here
Holding a mirror
To the dark river that runs within me
I don't want to talk, I want to hold still
So I don't spill the contents
I've been trying so hard to keep it filled
No lights on in this room
Just the outline of how I ruined the evening
With my whine
All will be forgiven in time, but as the sky drops now
Into the prowling crouch of night
I don't want to talk, I want to hold still
Like a hawk in mid-air, the wind
Folding in place to hold me there
What it must feel like to ride the air
That velvet coil
That velvet coil
Dusk weighs heavy and blue on the leaves
I am at my loneliest when you're here
Holding a mirror
To the dark river that runs within me
I don't want to talk, I want to hold still
So I don't spill the contents
I've been trying so hard to keep it filled
No lights on in this room
Just the outline of how I ruined the evening
With my whine
All will be forgiven in time, but as the sky drops now
Into the prowling crouch of night
I don't want to talk, I want to hold still
Like a hawk in mid-air, the wind
Folding in place to hold me there
What it must feel like to ride the air
That velvet coil
That velvet coil
