Easy On

Yesterday I came,

I don't know how I came to be

Fell off a branch sleeping in the lap of a multi-hued sea

And if I don't give it my blood and give it my wings

I'll return to the life of safer things


It's not easier when you try


Yesterday I fell,

I don't know how I did fall

Laughing at the soft injustice of it all

And if I don't go where I know she wants me to go

I will walk along paths I once crawled


And I think I'll never die, there's something holy in her eyes

*


We were tired, I drove slow

Words were forming wet in our throats

So say it, say it, say what you know

You're a sweet one, that you are

Strange and pretty and kept apart

So tell me, tell me, tell me who you are
