Cactus Song

Now you won't listen to a word I say
Its a lifelong wait for validation
You’re cruising circles around your weighted days
It's all for the ways you've found salvation

I’ve already got that in the songs I've made for you
I've already found that in the things I've made for years
The points where I start and the outlines of your skin
Unsure where you end and my whole world begins

Skyscraper trees grew up from morsel seeds
We all owe ourselves to one another
The pieces woke so now I choose to breathe
I'm the ground below to help support you

I’ve already got that in the songs I've made for you
I've already found that in the things I've made for years
The Moon, the stars, the bugs, the powers that may be
Entropic limbo, the end of all things
The points where I start and the outlines of your skin
Unsure where you end and my whole world begins

You are the light, you are the pain I feel
I'm the skin and blood that binds within you
The fictions that we tell are warm and fake
But the truth is always heartbreaking and real

I've already got that in the songs I've made for you
I’ve already found that in the things I’ve made for years
The Moon, the stars, the bugs, the powers that may be
Entropic limbo, the end of all things
The points where I start and the outlines of your skin
Unsure where you end and my whole world begins

Unsure where you end and my whole world begins
Unsure where you end and my whole world begins
