about

Written by Dylan LeSage

lyrics

Summer promised clouds moving close
for when rain falls, what doesn't die will grow
I thought every flower had wilted in me
until you had led me home
and I sleep best with thee in these sheets

Now, miss, I may be a master at
letting these things, let them be as it is
But like a pup calling to a friend,
the wind again was pullin' me back in

Dear, help me thaw this ice in my chest
You are not garbage.
"You are golden," she said, "and you are a poet."
Now may I rest here 'til the morning ends?
Knowing our kingdom will stand for
a thousand years times ten.

Winter promised us cracks in our skin
the very life being taken right from under it
and even though we may have just met.

Madame, forgive me, I am a fool
when it comes to social cues
washing dishes or knowing
what makes you so cool
oh so cool.

Dear, help me thaw this ice in my chest
You are not useless you are the best
and you are golden
so may i rest
here my weary head
for a thousand years times ten.
