anesthesia - dopexdiamonds lyrics
[verse 1]
your skin is a map i trace with the flat of my palm, searching for calm
static under the lamps, a hush that hides the qualm
dragging through velvet and oil, slow coil and soil
there’s a seam in the light where everything forgets to hurt, slips into dirt
[pre*chorus]
hold me open like a room without a door
the hum loosens the edges of the word stay
[chorus]
let it slow you down
let it take the sound
[verse 2]
glass in the sink, the memory of someone laughing
move like rehearsing grief, small and deliberate
a pulse under the floorboard, counting out of time
telling me your name
[pre*chorus]
keep me under as the ceiling slides away
the hum wants a confession in the key of cold
[chorus]
the room forgives the light
the night is quietly bright
[bridge]
we are sediment — slow settling, salt and silver
the world untangles at our ankles, slow angles pulling in
watch the edges polish, watch the gloss diminish
there is a pleasure in losing shape, in forgetting weight, in wanting to escape
[breakdown]
snap — a fingertip on glass
snap — i taste a winter
snap — keep me numb enough
[final chorus]
fold me into the hush where the shadows learn your face
breathe me flat and keep me there
small light, small mercy, small repair
