lyrics

Hold me up and
Pour me out
Watch the molten core
Overflowing to the ground
There’s so much to betray
As I cascade on down
But you’ll see the light
Dance round the cave
For a moment before the sound

So hold me up

We felt the quiet of that ancient tide
Where the great pool that divides us
Never takes a side

You’re a liar
You’re gonna leave this place
I’ll still long for your reflection
I’m gonna miss you, babe

Deep and buried and on a sunlit day
We unearthed them, tools forgotten
Found a shine in their decay

You’re a liar
You’re gonna leave this place
I’ll return to this impression
I’m gonna miss you, babe

You’re a liar

In the garden of our own design
We grew restive, started singing
Just to pass the time

You’re a liar
You’re gonna leave this place
I’ll still hope for restoration
I’m gonna miss you, babe

You’re a liar
