Solstice (Ocean) - Lasso The Moon

A restricted area Shaped like a Petunia Thank God you know your ways It's on your mind It's on all the time And I find it hard to explain What would you trade me for? While this girl's playing hula hoop Under the malicious Winter solstice Turn the lights on Find me a narrative Something positive This requiem played a few times before I heard it once So, I'm not sure On the phone "I told you" Why open your eyes to go to bed? Drive straight to the ocean And see what you won't find out Even the righteous beheaded their loved ones Now it's hard to connect But the world's unchained And soon It'll be public domain It's too hard to remain Astute But I'll always stay If you're detained With you I'll wash my hands Until it rains Through you Keeping the lights on Obliged to the bygones Thank God you know your ways If this time it's true Why bother reeling you? All this fine jewelry Look at this diamond shaped out of glass I'll try to make this Ruby shine nice I'm trying to make a living Is that something that you don't mind Fine Did you ever think it could have been in our lifetime? So, give me a ride home Find me a narrative Something positive This requiem played a few times before I heard it twice So, I'm not sure On the phone "I told you" Why open your eyes to go to bed? Drive straight to the ocean Let's see what you won't find out Cover you eyes for Winter Solstice? Now it's hard to connect But the world's unchained And soon It'll be public domain It's too hard to remain Astute But I will stay If you're detained With you I'll wash my hands Until it rains Through you

I drove up to the city at night And found the place where you grew up And then where you stayed And then we walked around And stayed up late Under city lights And I spent the night Next to you in the house where you grew up Next to you I miraculously woke up In your parents' house I lied in bed with you I went out to feel alone there I went back to wipe it clean I took the lights and radio towers out of my dreams We went all the way up to the small town where I'm from With foggy air And the wind And the mountain top And we clung to rocks And we looked off You held my hand You almost got to start feeling me I finally felt like I was breathing free And under swaying trees, we fell asleep and had the same dream The stars were bright We dream the same every night On my island home I spent some time with you I went back to feel alone there I went back there by myself And gave up on everything that we'd felt We found a precious place in the sand Right out in the wind And lied under a blanket And heard the furious sound The roar of waves The pounding surf Two bodies on the earth It was intense just getting to be there next to you And you were trying to get me then And I was happy to let you in I went back and wished I hadn't I went back and felt regret I went to the beach and I stared west Every night when the sun went down In the town where we live The empty streets were lit up By reflected light From a distant sun Bouncing off a glowing ball of rock We just lied on the roof and watched The moon The moon The blue light of the moon We didn't talk and silently we both felt powerful Like the moon my chest was full Because we both knew we're just floating in the same space over molten rock And we felt safe and discovered that our skin is soft There's nothing left except certain death And that was comforting under the moon I went out last night to forget that I went out and stared it down But the moon just stared back at me And in its light, I saw my two feet on the ground
