Braid (Mmph Remix) - Perfume Genius

I won't give Settle in Sure as a shadow Never quit Seconds bloom Every move Right in time In time, woven slow Just enough Ba, ba, ba (ba, ba, ba) Ba, ba, ba (ba, ba, ba) Secret is braided In-between Feel it shaking And set free Heavens break Make my name Lose its meaning And every harm is lovingly Washed away

Though deep set somewhat shadowed Her lies, her mystery That's not so different than the way that he said "Well, don't hide your eyes that way, "baby" In his heart he wishes her stardom His eyes want for her much more That's not so different Than the way that he said "There are so very few stars left (oh-oh) Don't hide behind your hair It's a bit of gold and braid Easy come the tears You see a pathway Ending with a doorway You slip toward the doorway Been waiting there all day All these years In his heart he wishes her stardom His eyes want for her much more That's not so different Than the way that he said "Well, don't hide your eyes that way, baby" Don't hide behind your hair It's a bit of gold and braid Easy come the tears You see a pathway Ending with a doorway You slip toward the doorway Been waiting there all day All these years Don't hide it In his heart (in his heart), he wishes to forget about you Make her better Hold her like a child In his heart he wishes her stardom His eyes want from her much more That's not so different Than the way that he said "Well, don't hide your eyes that way, "baby" Don't hide behind your hair It's a bit of gold and braid Easy come the tears You see a pathway Ending with a doorway You slip toward the doorway Been waiting there all day All these years Don't hide your eyes that way Don't hide anything not anymore Because I never did not love you I never did run from you In a dream I said to you That I'd, I'd always love you (don't hide behind your eyes) (Don't hide behind your eyes) (Don't hide behind your eyes) Welcome everyone
