lyrics

Insects

Trust in your instinct, we're not far from insects
Sweet honey bee and the spider web
No, i'll never break your wings or pull off your legs,
Though I've got a feeling that i'll be stung again

We're brushing off each other in the underground,
I'm trying to read the poem that's pouring out,
In a thought bubble above your head,
No, i never worry about all that's unsaid

Still,i'm staining the silence with the talk of the show,
Thinking about the feeling in my toes before the snow
Came down to reach for your naked head
And crowned you as the season's princess

We could be mayflies or we could be magpies
here for a shr while, let's have a good time,
even if ui hold your hand till we're old and grey
still i've to start by holding today


Trust in your instinct, we're not far from insects
Sweet honey bee and the spider web
No, i'll never break your wings or pull off your legs,
Though I've got a feeling that I'll be stung again
