[Intro: heavy repeated piano chords alone] [Verse 1: fragile, breathy, close-mic, piano only, restrained] I build myself up To sail through the weather I spend the days trying To make myself feel better Round the serpentine Empty conversations I’m not impressed by anyone [Pre-Chorus: soft quiver, piano grows heavier, first low swell] Friends say I’m anxiously attached yeah Attached yeah And ketamine won’t numb My passion for ya I hope you know That what you hold Is a diamond With a heart of gold [Chorus: voice breaks open into raw belt, deep slow drum hits, pads rise] Wash over like me a waterfall Do what you want Just don’t let me go Until the Moon finally Gives into the sun Look in your eyes And they tell me one thing That we should be more than friends The universe conspired for us To meet this way Meet this way, meet this way To meet this way Meet this way, meet this way [Verse 2: pulls back to piano and voice, quiet ache] I pay my bills Got a house in the hills Call up the Red Cross Yeah, I’ma volunteer I do it all for you And you just break me dear Throw away our history We could start from here [Bridge: hushed, voice almost whispered, piano building underneath] Oo-oo the time is running out Oo-oo reach out and feel me know Oo-oo we’ll shoot into the sky Oo-oo we’ll shoot into the sky [Final Chorus: full power, piano hammering, rawest belt, cracking at peaks] Wash over like me a waterfall Do what you want Just don’t let me go Until the Moon finally gives into the sun Look in your eyes And they tell me one thing That we should be more than friends The universe conspired for us To meet this way Meet this way, meet this way To meet this way Meet this way, meet this way [Outro: piano alone, voice fades to a whisper, unresolved] [Fade out]
