Em Rattles Bones - Autumn Evening Sun (demo)

You lean in and whisper a joke
Nonsense delivered with such belief
I can tell your sixteen year old self
Was a theatre kid

I think I remember this from
Stories I wrote of another place
I clung to you like a priest to a church pew
When you said "do not be afraid"

Oh, we're older now
Safe to say we're not the same
You keep changing your goddamn hair
I keep changing my name

It's nice to see you again
I stopped for some wine på vägen hem
Didn't I always say I'd come home in the end?

I'm glad you're still an outcast like me
You don't mind when the wine is cheap

Skål för allt vi har blivit
Pour one for every crying old ghost now and leave it
To go up in flames in its seat
Burning bright from the northern hemisphere's autumn evening sun
Can't you feel it? Anything's possible
Och jag har sett det här i en dröm

Do you believe in fate?
I cannot say that I don't
Det som legat gömt har bara sovit, inte glömts
It's like we've always known

I laugh at you and you laugh at me laughing
We both lose it, sit there shaking in silence
And people glance at us sideways
Det gör ingenting, they don't know what we know

The wind picked up, blew my hair into my mouth
I hoped you found it charming how I winced and spat it out
And I thought "none of us will say it for a while
But we've both got something in our eyes"

It's nice to see you again
I stopped for some wine på vägen hem
Didn't I always say I'd come home in the end?

I'm glad you're still an outcast like me
You don't mind when the wine is cheap

Skål för allt vi har blivit
Pour one for every crying old ghost now and leave it
To go up in flames in its seat
Burning bright from the northern hemisphere's autumn evening sun
Can't you feel it? Var inte rädd
Och jag har sett det här i en dröm
