Alchemy - Slowly Slowly

You’ll be mine, get in my coffin

Give me a cross stitch on the wall, give me a garden

That grows forever always in bloom

Morning light and coffee cups;

Alchemy your bones & blood

An hour late for 27

I have known you in my head, shaking lips and nervous red

You see me die, you see me trying

Scrape my knees down to the bone, fall asleep while driving home We’re making

gold

But am I right?

To shift my gaze

To see us holding hands in June?

See me falling to you?

You’re the floodlight, I’m the asphalt

Morning light and coffee cups;

Alchemy your bones & blood

We’re making gold

In the back of my head

There’s a spaceship theres a skip in

Every step, I got stuck, tried to jump the wire fence

There’s more than one

More to come

More than anybody knows

And I’ve always felt I deserved less

We shut the blinds, tipped the scales

Hung from every picture rail

I read my script, from your palm

Wrote a million little songs

Each one a piece from the jigsaw

We were pictured on

And I always felt I deserved less, and I always felt I deserved less

I still feel I deserve less

So I won’t lie and you won’t hide

And if I split myself in two I’ll just come running home to you

We’re making gold
