lyrics

"Trapeze"

Suddenly, we’re tumbling toward
Uncertainty, we’re instinctively ripcord
As we’re hurtling, meteoric pace

So please turn to me and tell me all your wants
With urgency and clarity we launch
On this journey and the surging storms

I won’t leave if that’s what you want
I’ll go where you go
I won’t leave you a broken heart
I will hold you

Currently, electrically we bond
So statically, the extremities respond
Through the fingers and this fleeting grasp

I won’t leave if that’s what you want
I’ll go where you go
I won’t leave you a broken heart
I will hold you

Fly trapeze, like a cannonball from this pedestal
To the nth degree, reaching for the stars with these broken parts

Could’ve been you, could’ve been me
Pulling on the levers of the ropes of my heart
What if it is you, counter intuitively
Spinning all the needles on the speedometer

Desperately, you’ve got to just believe we are
For eternity, as we’re flying through the stars
As we’re hurtling, meteoric pace

I won’t leave if that’s what you want
I’ll go where you go
I won’t leave you a broken heart
I will hold you
I will hold you
