Lyrics
An Island
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Shit got heavy like my eyelids
On a highway that won’t end
You got quiet like an island, so I left
I headed out to sea
A toothless shark
An actor playing a part
But I can’t pretend to care like I did when
The unknown was my second home
Now we’re upside down, love
Gravity had a change of heart
You fell for the hell of it and I fell for it all
I’ve incisive intuition
It’s a curse more than anything
Always the first to know how everything ends
Bullets in June
A nice night for a knife fight
Between two boats drifting
The sun shines on you, love
You're well-lit like a work of art
And I’ve been exiled like the enemy
Forever in the dark
