Moody Miles (Lyrics)

It's just another circle to spin I couldn't bother to say Growing wider and feeling thin I wasn't troubled enough to flinch It's just another circle to spin I couldn't bother to say You just want to hear the sound You want my head to match my mouth I move my tongue and trust it speaks enough I want to stop it there Curse it 'til it turns to stone Grind it 'til it's dirt and bone And spit it out onto the grass We'll shed our skin in summer heat We'll swallow all our baby teeth We'll retire young while still in our prime We can't hold a shape Despite how still we are We age all at once Or never at all We'll rush to the end, give up and try again You were cowered in the covers Never tasked with sleep You'd rather face another day At ease between the sheets You were cowered in the covers In the corner Where you were safe from any fault or blame You were cowered in the covers Never tasked with sleep It was never quite enough to nurse your nest Young dreams of yours to bolt you to your bed It was never quite enough to nurse your nest Young dreams of yours to bolt you to your bed A freedom you're too strained to feel A surrogate love you swear is real A surge of adrenaline at just standing still I pictured you in motion though you never will
