White Light

by GEMS

on Kill the One You Love (2015)

killing time
or is it time that's killing me?
in the dusty sun
I could drink until I'm free
when it's all done
in the daylight, chalk and bone
I was graceful
like a falling heavy stone

white light, white wine
(I can't be a part of you)
I never wanted this for you
(I can't be apart from you)
let my light shine
(I can't be a part of you)
I don't know how to get to you
(I can't be apart from you)

as you're leaving
shut the door and leave the keys
under the carpet
worn as thin as memories
with all our patterns
from what I've come to love and lost
paper lanterns
crushed and swallowed by the frost

white light, white wine
(I can't be a part of you)
I never wanted this for you
(I can't be apart from you)
let my light shine
(I can't be a part of you)
I don't know how to get to you
(I can't be apart from you)
