lyrics

I Know a Place

I know a place where your face is preserved in amber. I know a time where the clock hand is seized; where we can forget all the things we don’t want to remember. Forget what is real, you can meet me in dreams.

I’m not as mean as I seem in the details of daylight. The words that I say marching back to my mouth. Half of my actions collapse if you choose to refuse them. The facts of the rest are arrested in doubt.

I know a place where the leaves are unfurling forever, where you take my hand anytime that you please. Your brow is unfurrowed and ties to the present are severed. Forget what you should do and meet me in dreams.

So turn off your phone, quit your job, set the mattress on fire. Boil the Bible to make yourself tea. Only your memories stand to confirm you’re a liar. There’s no knock at the door and it’s probably me.
