One White Raven - Under Our Shadow

My skin tells me where my body is
When it splits, when it bleeds
It writes me in the sheets
Into the streets
Where her body is
They split me in the streets
And I sink into my sheets

Writing with white ink
You who so good with words

I love crowds
And their insincerity
Their impersonality
They let me feel alone
Let me be part of them
Let me be part of and apart from them

Sometimes weird is pretty
Sometimes words are pretty

We can never look away
Oh, we'll never look away
Oh, I can't look away
Oh, Under the shadow is where we'll stay

Many have come and gone
And yet I think you'll stay even as you're gone
In late night texts
Godforsaken snacks
In unbridled sex
Maybe we'll live together in a photograph of time
No one is going to take me away from you
There is no one left to take

Sometimes words are pretty
Sometimes weird is pretty
Even as I swore I'd drown you in my paint
Never meant to cause you sorrow, or any pain

Our bodies don't forget
That you felt like home
All these secrets buried under my skin

Sometimes words are pretty
Sometimes weird is pretty
