Portrait I - The Howl & The Hum

Gold, gold, she looked like she was golden

Think she would have landed me if she got any closer

But as I leaned in, she grew wings

Felt like I was falling through it as she rose then

Gone gone, quickly as the dawn

I was never knowing if she’d ever come home

So with all my might changed my mind

But an angel leaves an imprint on your broken bones

Girl, churl, from out of this world

Slow like thunder rare like pearls

When morning came the darkness stayed

Now all I want to do is shade the shame

Shade the shame

Shade the shame

Shade the shame

And when she’s falling

Do you really think you’ll waste my time

Her name I am calling

Do you really think I’ve lost my mind

A study of the girl with wings

Daylight it never felt right

To live inside a bunker for the rest of my life

The mold the rot that you forgot

Is a figure floating has a broken mirror for a mind

Gold, gold, faces you get older

Walk like caramoony, though I know I am a soldier

You had a son, you both moved on

But you know you cast a shadow off the lawn

Off the lawn

Off the lawn

Off the lawn

And when she’s falling

Do you really think you’ll waste my time

Her name I am calling

Do you really think I’ve lost my mind

It’s been killing me all this time

That we should ever have discovered

Feel like I’ve wasted all my life

Cause I could never grow feathers

A study of the girl with wings

A study of the girl with wings

Oh, it’s been killing me all this time

That we should have ever discovered

Feel like I’ve wasted all my life

Cause I could never grow feathers, no

For you
