Harsh Your Mellow - Shira

Cessation of sleep

Don’t stay up so late

You make a promise you can’t keep

I just wanna knock so hard on the dream, it wakes me

Is this the abyss?

Or a dilapidated kiss?

I don’t wanna harsh your mellow

But are you growing wings?

I don’t mean to harsh your mellow

But are you growing wings?

I don’t wanna harsh your mellow

But are you growing wings?

Or do they drag?

Do they drag?

Do they drag?

Do they drag?

I wasn’t raised in a barn

I was raised by the sun

There was blood in my milk

My mother taught me to run

And ever since then I’ve been fine

And ever since then I’ve been fine

I don’t wanna harsh your mellow

But are you growing wings?

I don’t mean to harsh your mellow

But are you growing wings?

I don’t wanna harsh your mellow

But are you growing wings?

Or do they drag?

Do they drag?

Do they drag?

Do they drag?

I always find I feel like a mouse confronted with a cobra

There’s something hypnotic about you

Can you explain it and where did it come from?

I’m the whole mountain, the whole enchilada

If loose lips sink ships I’m silence’s mantra

I can’t help but drown in your syllable slaughter

I listen soft, I’m the rains daughter

And partially I got a pocket full of timeless

And I’m buried in the light

Partially I firefly in a broken jar

But I can’t seem to get out

Love letter to wings: open

Love letter to mouth: speak or be spoken for

Love letter to sky: kite

Love letter to kite: sky

'Cause I meant it when I said I’m dead

I don’t know if you heard me write silk on a stone page

I meant it when I said I’m dead (serious)

Don’t know if you heard me write silk on a stone page

Love letter to doors: open

Love letter to eyes: see before sewn shut

Love letter to hate: see ya

Love letter to fire: one day you’ll put me out

Talk to me, have mercy on me

Operator of all I see

I know something even I don’t know

Deep in the depths make me an echo

Make me an echo

Make me an echo
