lyrics

Hey, what’s that you say?
feels like we got born today
dark eyes damp skin
waiting for another world to begin

In this place time bends
When you breathe out, I breathe you in
Trees grow, roots take,
Coiling as a brand new world takes shape

No border guards
Patrol these paths

Drifting to another world
Where all the masks come down and we touch

Sinking to another world
the vines are curling round as we touch

Hey, hey, melt the clocks
Fingers push down into moss
Dark eyes damp skin
Reaching for the place I end and you begin

Hey, hey, whaddya say?
Today won’t feel like yesterday
In this place Time bends
The gaps between each beat of your heart never end

No border guards
are on these paths

Drifting to another world
where all the masks come down and we touch

Sinking to another realm
the vines are curling round as we touch

No more, no more today
The words will fall away
Just let the picture fade
As we touch
