Plum

[Verse 1: Cory Hanson]
I can't believe
That you turned it on yourself
And you made things so much worse than they ever could be
What are you gonna leave to me?
And you deflate
Like a balloon on a lake
Like a swollen tiger combing the swamp for debris
All that you see in me

[Verse 2: Cory Hanson]
We get thin like old kings
Who have lived for far too long
'Til our empires fall over on horses and feet
Frozen until the spring
I can't believe
That the money was not real
That the promises we keep are no worse than the lies
Nobody wants to believe

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3: Cory Hanson and Sofia Arreguin]
And I can't believe
Stay close and warm
That the language we both speak
Let the assignment turn you on
Wasn't given or created by you or by me
We won't hold our lights to shield your eyes from the dark
All we express and seem
Shadow we all came from
And you can scream
Fold both your arms
'Til your face turns to a plum
Fall back asleep but watch the clock
An old rotten knot of feathers that used to be wings
See an image of this song burn like a coat
And other useless dreams
What will the world become?
