I was eighteen when I cut the brake lines
From the back of my heel to swim and fly.
I was barely twenty when I realized
Pictured myself in fields, pictured you by my side
While the current swore to the windy sky,
Don't be afraid - everyone will be fine
On that day I saw those tears in your eyes,
Just let ‘em fall. They are so bright.
And one day, I'll cry. I will cry
At all the beauty making a nest in the aftermath of our caved in chests
With our warm hands tangled, salty dust
The kelp and dust - what we become
And one day, I'll cry. I will cry at all the beauty I've seen in this life.
Yeah one day, I'll cry. I won't lie.
I was eighteen when I cut the brake lines
From the back of my heels to swim and fly
I was barely twenty when I realized
Wanted to live in fields, pictured you by my side
And one day I'll cry, I will cry at all the beauty there's left in this life
Yeah one day, I'll cry. I won't lie.
(There's so much beauty left in this life.)
