I’m still in the pool
You left me in
And I thought it’d be cool
To be
Melted down
To be water on the ground
You could walk on or swim through

Here I am at the top again
Dreaming that you let me in
Talk me down, talk me down
Talk me down

We leave our marks on things
That will never be ours
The streets are scarred
The trees are carved

With names that glow like
Diamond rings on one knee
In a nice restaurant

I’m better now
Those dreams are gone

Cause I thought it’d be you
And me
Hovering ‘round everything
I knew
We’d be, if autumn flowers could
Just hold out ‘til spring
And shake off the snowfall

Here I am at the top again
Desperate for oxygen
Talk me down, talk me down

Here I am at a loss again
Starving for oxytocin
Talk me down, talk me down

We leave our marks on things
That will never be ours
The streets are scarred
The trees are carved

With names that glow like
Diamond rings on one knee
In a nice restaurant

I’m better now
Those dreams are gone

Fading faster
In the picture you took of us
Just the two of us

There’s no future in
This phantom limb
I’ve sown to us

And there’s a little spot where I
Let you in
Now it’s a vacant lot
Where your name never washes off

Cause I thought it’d be you
And me
Circling infinity

We leave our marks on things
That will never be ours
The streets are scarred
The trees are carved

With names that glow like
Diamond rings on one knee
In a nice restaurant

I’m better now
Those dreams are gone
