Poppy Ribs
[Verse 1]
Can I hold your love between my ribs
While you weigh me down to something thin?
When I get back up, feeble and frail
Then I won't see you as the same again
You were oh-so quiet when I needed you
Was clamoring for something true
[Chorus]
Now I, if I close my eyes, I can feel you
Vanish into blinding light to what I can't recognize
Now I splinter and divide, but go on breathing
Leave me to my own device, time was all I'd need to see it
[Verse 2]
Before I quit, I got to vent
But the sorrow draws lines across my chest
Ooh, pale in my lips, my chin's so high it broke my neck
And I can nеver see you as the same again
I bеar the shadow of my mind, I sink into the scene to hide
All the color is a mess, is there a means? Is there an end to this?
[Chorus]
Oh, I, if I close my eyes, I can feel you
Vanish into blinding light to what I can't recognize
Now I splinter and divide, but go on breathing
Leave me to my own device, time was all I'd need to see it
[Bridge]
You drift further by the day
You took a twist of a memory that we made
Ribbed with loneliness and shame
All to my own dismay
[Chorus]
I, if I close my eyes I can feel you
Vanish into blinding light to what I can't recognize
Now I splinter and divide, but go on breathing
Leave me to my own device, time was all I'd need to see it
[Outro]
Hey
