lyrics

We bowed our heads, skipped out the back
While they weren't looking on
Stifling laughter, we heard that old song
Fade as we drove off and away

We let it out, struggling uphill
In those giant dresses
laying there still, laughing at the rest
When they would notice and what they would say

Stained glass, lilacs, rings, and wine
Burnt away in those white lights

Now we wait for them to crawl out
of those silhouettes burnt into the ground
To see it all now
Still in the debris, please don't leave my side

I won't spiral out on you now
We're all we've got left
It's penance or just some cheap providence
That we're still here by just distance and time

Daydreaming of unlived lives
Burnt away in those white lights

I skipped every ceremony that I ever could
They had warned us both but we knew we would
That we could brave a little bad luck
