๐ Lyrics
Loosely melting the snow down from the mountainside
You know this gun's for hire
But I don't have the strength left to hide
A single storm can only do so much 'till all the clouds are dry
So what a lovely sight it is to see that final flake fall by
We're only working for the man
But tell me honestly, is he giving you a hard time?
The climate froze up so much
I'm surprised you hadn't switched to part time
But now the weather looks so pleasant
Do you want to take this conversation outside?
It's slightly different round these parts
So if you need a hand to hold, you can take mine
From the start, it seemed we were never really free
But now you know where you can always reach me
Not every dying animal's a lesson to be learned
All the fables in our memory were way too unconcerned
So let's set up a quiet burial
For two who lived but never got to speak
Lay them gently in the dirt beneath
Take the time to paint the crosses god is holding back for us
I like just watching you in focus
While you're rolling back your cuffs
If only you had moved here sooner
But in some other life we never even met
Or, was it always set?
From the start, it seemed we were never really free
But now you know where you can always reach me
But now you know where you can always reach me
And every hanging message that I send
I'll try my hardest not to think you've lost your love for me
It's the closest that I've ever been
I know I'm always paranoid
It's an aspect I try to avoid
But fast as I can run away this tail is still a part of me
And when you do get back to me
And send a heart upon my screen
I'd trust you with my own
And let you guide me to that open sea
And I could be the Elpenor to your loyal Perimedes
And though those men were all condemned
The stars tonight shine favourably
So be my cardiographer
Let me know my heart's condition
Tell me my astrologer
Upon which light should I be wishing
Ages that I waited just to see you in the flesh
And could I count on one hand
All the times we'll meet before our deaths
But now you're here and breathing next to me
Here and breathing next to me
I swear one day this fear is gonna be the bitter death of me
But here and breathing next to me is you
Intact and presently one thing I know for certain is
"It's more than what I'd ever thought it'd be"
You know this gun's for hire
But I don't have the strength left to hide
A single storm can only do so much 'till all the clouds are dry
So what a lovely sight it is to see that final flake fall by
We're only working for the man
But tell me honestly, is he giving you a hard time?
The climate froze up so much
I'm surprised you hadn't switched to part time
But now the weather looks so pleasant
