Those lemon trees that grew and withered, and grew all over again
They watched you tread water,
Swim out too far
Kick step and float
You wish for darker, warmer
The mind and the stars, the sand and it's numbers
You want to be backed into a corner
Left and loved until you are sick
Loved until you are no longer sick

Those lemon trees that grew and withered, and grew all over again
They watched you tread water,
Swim out too far
Kick step and float
You wish for darker, warmer
The mind and the stars, the sand and it's numbers
You want to be backed into a corner
Left and loved until you are sick
Loved until you are no longer sick
