about

Though I can't say I will never fail, I promise that I will.

lyrics

I'll admit I've been hard on myself since I met you
Sticking silver slipper slivers in my heart till I started to
Break my own heart for you

I'll admit inshalah i'll be Ra to your Atum
your Chocolate sun, beating bushes on an atom bomb,
I promise that I'll do you wro-o-ong

If I let you know my love, If I pull my anchors up,
Can you Carry what you can't put down, To be honest I will let you down.
If I let you know my love, If I pull my anchors up,
Can you Carry what you can't put down, I promise I will let you down.

I'll admit I've been stuck on your eyes since I met you
But afraid that when you realize I'm a broken man
There's only so much you can stand.

I have gloves, for the petals of your onion
As the olive drew the dove, to the grafting of an autumn bough,
And she carried him above the clouds

There she goes in a wedding gown, and it puts my vows to shame,
leaving me with everything to gain...
