powder blue

elbow

your eyes are just like black spiders

your hair and dress in ribbons

babycakes

in despair or incoherent

nothing in between

china white

my bride tonight

smiling on the tiles

bring that minute back

we never get so close as when the sunward flight begins

i share it all with you

powder blue

oh

stumble through the crowds together

they're trying to ignore us

that's okay

i'm proud to be the one you hold when the shakes begin

sallow-skinned

starry-eyed

blessed in our sin

bring that minute back

we never get so close to death

makes you so alive

i share it all with you

powder blue

oh

yeah

yeah

hey

yeah

hey

yeah

bring that minute back

we'll never get so close as when the sunward flight begins

i share it all with you

powder blue

oh
