[Verse]
And of places in between houses
Where the redwoods could swallow you whole
Swollen appendages catch in the knots of radiance
Collapsing inwards
It’s there I replace your face with flowers
Sow seed in the hem of your dress
In glowing favor, you’ll bloom
So I can scatter you around the room
In hopes to keep love near the places we once kept warm
[Chorus]
And of spaces between bedsores
Where cherubs count our hairs and pores
Lord, let her in or don’t let her leave
Or find a reason not to leave
Find a reason not to leave
[Chorus]
And of spaces in between bedsores
Where hands clean our hairs and pores
Lord, let her in or don’t let her leave
Or find a reason not to leave
Find a reason not to leave
[Outro]
Find a reason not to leave
Find a reason not to leave
Redwoods Two was produced by E.M. Hudson.
