Who would have known
That a boy like him
Would have entered me lightly
Restoring my blisses

Who would have known
That a boy like him
After sharing my core
Would stay going nowhere

Who would have known
A beauty this immense
Who would have known
A saintly trance
Who would have known
Miraculous breath
To inhale a beard
Loaded with courage

Who would have known
That a boy like him
Possessed of magical
Sensitivity
Who would approach a girl like me
Who caresses cradles his head
In her bosom

He slides inside
Half awake, half asleep
We faint back
Into sleephood
When I wake up
The second time
In his arms
Gorgeousness
He's still inside me

Who would have known
Who ahhh
Who would have known

A train of pearls
Cabin by cabin
Is shot precisely
Across an ocean

From a mouth
From a
From the mouth
Of a girl like me
To a boy
To a boy
To a boy

Just one more time he said as he crawls into his own
I?m doing fine he said as the tears fall down alone
Why must you question me?
Do you want your future blown?
Look at the sight of him
What can he do to show you?
Living life for others
Shuffle through the day
Everyone is out to get him
What do they have to say?
Pull yourself up out of this rut
Make it all come clean
Cause the day the sun gets in your eyes
Is the day that you?ll be free?
Open the door
The world is too young
To see what you?ve felt before
When all the sleeps end restlessly
Without time
Dream yourself to sleep at night
Only lying beneath the clouds
Spend your lifetime in the shade
When the early morning sun wakes up
To reveal the pain you?ve laid

this cocoon, caught in vesuvius' shadow
only the ashes remain
and i waited there for you
why couldn't you?
here we lie waiting for somethig to startle
to shake us from gravity's pull
and so the sleeping hours are through
what can we do?

the sorry conclusion, the low dirty war, it happened before you came to
but this is solution, and this is amends
the joke always tends to come true
but there on your windowsill over the unmoving platoon
written in paperback, the view to the quarterback's room
under waning moon

this quiet serves only to hide you
provide you
what i knew (x2)
it'd come back to you

take this palm, follow the lines here are written
tracing the veins and the shapes
and feel your fingers falling slack and all folding back

the tainted election, the hole in the sky
command what is tried, what is true
but without solution, with feet on the ground
it won't make a sound 'til you're through
so loosen your shoulderblades
this is your hour to make due
because there on the timberline
deep cold november shines through
soft and absolute

this quiet serves only to hide you
provide you
what i knew (x2)
it'd come back to you

If I should choose to live in my cocoon
Wrap myself in me and cry myself to sleep
If I should choose to protect my tender
Heart build a shoell from you
Steal myself from you
Chorus
If I decided I can't do it anymore try to
Be so hard I'm trying to be so fucking
Hard if I should choose to keep lying to
Myself pretend my mind is telling truths
Well I've got my own so who are you
I know I know
Chorus:
If I should choose to fall apart
Don't you think you should let me
If I should choose to die alone
You should forgive and forget me
I know

If I should choose to live in my cocoon
Wrap myself in me and cry myself to sleep
If I should choose to protect my tender
Heart build a shoell from you
Steal myself from you
Chorus
If I decided I can't do it anymore try to
Be so hard I'm trying to be so fucking
Hard if I should choose to keep lying to
Myself pretend my mind is telling truths
Well I've got my own so who are you
I know I know
Chorus:
If I should choose to fall apart
Don't you think you should let me
If I should choose to die alone
You should forgive and forget me
I know

Well based on your smile
I'm betting all of this
Might be over soon
But your bound to win
Cause if I'm betting against you
I think I'd rather lose
But this is all that I have

So please
Take what's left of this heart and use
Please use only what you really need
You know I only have so little
So please
Mend your broken heart and leave

I know it's not your style
I can tell by the way that you move
It's real, real soon
But I'm on your side
And I don't want to be your regret
I'd rather be your cocoon
But this is all that you have

So please
Let me take what's left of your heart and I will use
I swear I'll use only what I need
I know you only have so little
So please
Let me mend my broken heart and

You said this was all you had
And it's all I need
But blah blah blah
Because it fell apart and
I guess it's all you knew
And all I have
But now we have
Only confused hearts and
I guess all we have
Is really all we need

So please
Let's take these broken hearts and use
Let's use only what we really need
You know we only have so little
So please
Take these broken hearts and leave

Even though I know it's only chemical
These peaks and valleys are beginning to take their toll
Try to convince myself that all it takes is time
But the most derisive voice I hear is mine

It opens all the scars on me
It leaves me shaken in my belief
It takes my hand just to drag me down
It makes me a stranger in the crowd

Give me isolation just for now
I feel a hard rain coming down
I promise that I will be back soon
But for now I'll return to my cocoon

There is thunder in the distance and the sky grows gray
There is lightning in the clouds in search of prey
It's not a matter of if as much as when
The clouds will break and the rainfall will begin

It opens all the scars on me
It leaves me shaken in my belief
It takes my hand just to drag me down
It makes me a stranger in the crowd

Give me isolation just for now
I feel a hard rain coming down
I promise that I will be back soon
But for now I'll return to my cocoon

Cracks in the chrysalis spread out like tiny snakes
That hiss a litany of rumors and mistakes
But I'm afraid their cause is fraught with futility
There is nothing more that they can take from me

It opens all the scars on me
It leaves me shaken in my belief
It takes my hand just to drag me down
It makes me a stranger in the crowd

Give me isolation just for now
I feel a hard rain coming down
I promise that I will be back soon
But for now I'll return to my cocoon

Even though I know it's only chemical

here all our wounds can heal
scars and blisters disappear
we`re safe just as long as we stay

in this cocoon I melt away with you
oh yeah in this cocoon no one can disturb
our dreams our eternal sleep

yes here love takes root and it grows
adrenaline and dopamine begin to flow
we`re one just as long as we stay
