lyrics

world away again
dont know how
dont know how
this keeps happening

find the root in the crease
pull at it repeatedly
i keep unearthing more and more
til it snaps dry
pile at my side
of what i’ve done
hidden in light
but its actually not there
and im looking for it every night

the reason i started searching
the center of my own thinking
why i do this in the morning
arch my back
moan like that
do it all
do it all again
again
do it all again
again

hearing sound
hearing sound
i, think i can see that
appleton woke me with violet water
thought you knew that
see this difference?
the width of all movement?

its mellowed through it
but it all looks the same to you
in spaced installments and dreamy waves
i see them, im asking my questions
you walk by me on pavement
i dont know
i dont why this happens
in pearlescent crystal
and harbored love
this haunts me until i die
a reoccurring faith
plays back in funny ways
tint the film, slide it an inch

its meant to happen this way
its meant to unfold like this
do you understand?
brandon? brandon? brandon? brandon?
brandon?
