Sleep Tongue lyrics
by Holy Fawn
The day was draped in golden twilight
And everything was a memory
Dissolving like sugar on your tongue
I want to hold every minute in my hands
Cupped like water
Slipping through the cracks
How lovely is the silence of growing leaves?
I can feel you close
And now I reach for you
Through the thorns in every dream
But I can’t get out
Bathe me in the fire
Dance around the embers
White stones in our mouths
Trees and forests talk to me when I’m sleeping
Take me when I’m lost
