I'll sink to the background
With my halcyon lover
I'll step down from my castle
Purge, and come around to a bigger truth
And make my way to the glow of a different light
Ear to the ground
But never knowing what I'm running to
But you and your harebrained markings on the empty shack
He with his head-down, arm-hanged, saunter down the track
I love you more than you know
You'll be out in the woods
I know you think I loved it and
For you I could
But I'm bound to a page
And dream of different starlight
In a different shade
All I wanted was to have prestige
Of a different kind
But we soured on planting seeds
Where there is no light
So I'll sink to the background
While I'm busy seeking better proof
I'm just sinking to the background
And you and your harebrained markings on the empty shack
He with his head down, arm-hanged, saunter down the track
I love you more than you know
