ANORAQUE - Ivy Lyrics

Some poisons have a way to spread in slow
Living inside you long before they show

Too soon rushing through the veins and breaking nerves
Ill wounds self afflictions we cannot observe

(denied swells a violence underneath the skin
The eye keeps a distance as we're sinking in)

Now that I see it
So pristine i hardly stand the sight
I promise I'm on it
Evergreen in facing parasites

While some are hooked on pointless TV shows
I'd rather watch the ivy grow

Assume distractions could be meant to make us blind
In bloom I'll climb out the lightest way I find

Now that I see it
So pristine I hardly stand the sight
I promise I'm on it
Evergreen and overwhelming blight

Though I'm too young now to make any sense
I trust that weakness tempers self defense
If confrontation is the only way I'm healing
