Sleep Like a Wide Open Window

from Dream It Out (EP) by morning...

/

lyrics

i was asleep and so alive
moreso than every day life
far away i'd wait for me,
but i found it best to leave me be
so we tied a string to the sun
pulled towards the horizon
i don't know what i wanna see,
but i don't want it in a dream

all my days seem crystalline
tiny gems you never leave
hazes of green stick in your throat
and all that shit weighs down the boat
so we wait by our windowsills
the whole world at a standstill
i don't know what i wanna see
but i don't want it in a dream.

every time i come home, it feels like i've been gone for years
yeah if home is where the heart is, then it must be far from here
so my heart slips through my ribs and tries to migrate to the south
but much like the wings of its companions, it has the cold to live without
so i watch this pretty picture in slow decay while on display
i can't enjoy it while it lasts, the same thing happened yesterday
wonder how could such a twilight seem so awkward and misplaced
inside this little set of towns that we return to every day?
