You In Another Life

Untethered by time's wicked torment You're meant to weather the wild storm sent north And if ever I wish to lie dormant I'll know to look for you You give me eyes, kind eyes still searching For faith like a bluebird proud and perching Worse things have come from bows and curtsies I look for you Infected and destitute, I've defected from the institute Into suits and moral absolutes And if I ever wish to be myself again I'll know to look for you I'll eat and gather my health again Just know I'll look for you (I look for you, I look for you) I look for you across my mattress Examine the parts real close like an actress Lattice looking like a cotton wool atlas I look for you I leave myself inside it Hot springs still sing in silence While it's work to keep my eyelids from moving onwards I look for you I look for you beneath the water And in the blue I'll see our daughter She thought her father wanted to abort her She looks like you I leave myself at the surface Floating on while I battle with worthlessness I know you don't deserve this Untethered by time's wicked torment You're meant to weather the wild storm sent north And if I ever discover where it all went I'll find you
