Persephone in Green

[Verse 1]
I'm rarely here all on my own
Think I'm the gravel, not the stone, mm
But when I am, my phantom pains
Wrap 'round my head like Daisy Jane (Mm)
I hear your echo in the hall
Your voice is warm and full and tall, mm
And when you whisper through the crowd
It cuts so keenly through the sound

[Chorus]
Oh, you and I are all tied up
But I come from shredded lines
So I give you what is mine
You're the iron in the wire
You and I are all tied up
I'll drag you down with me
Your Persephone in green
Nothing beautiful is clean

[Verse 2]
You say you've never mеt someone
So bent on gеtting what they want (Mm)
But when a flicker turns to flame
The things we want became the same

[Chorus]
Oh, you and I are all tied up
But I come from shredded lines
So I give you what is mine
You're the iron in the wire
You and I are all tied up
I'll drag you down with me
Your Persephone in green
Nothing beautiful is clean

[Bridge]
We'll buy an acre on the coast where the sky is white
And we'll seem happier than most, if they tell it right
And I will say, I got so close to a perfect life
Oh, oh

[Chorus]
Oh, you and I are all tied up
But I come from shredded lines
So I give you what is mine
You're the iron in the wire
You and I are all tied up
I'll drag you down with me
Your Persephone in green
Nothing beautiful is clean

[Outro]
Ah, ah
