jessica law - context lyrics

Loading...

we started out as a fleet
a column calm and complete
then the cold undertow
dragged us every way we know

in scattered waters we dwell
a very personal h+ll
separate streams, so it seems, we are compelled

now i look around
trapped in some middle+class babel
lofty words, and loud
tangle as they cross the table
not with all the wit of wilde
nor by baudelaire beguiled
could i get a word in edgеways, though i try

oh, but i was fine
‘til the light inside mе died
what you see are just reflections in the sky

more magic sparks on the stone
in concrete parks of my home
than all of these tall hallowed halls could possess

a single word from your lips
has more reward than a kiss
in a club ever could effervesce

seems i learned too late
faces and places need context
paradise is great
fill it with strangers, it’s meaningless

a cavalcade of revelry
but the place i want to be
is just sitting sipping tea on your settee

watching the sun go down
catching fire across the clouds
painting pink to make us think it’s still around
here in a house i don’t own
a town we’ve almost outgrown
our love layers up
like a pearl around a stone

and as the current drags and tows
and as disconnection grows
you’re a lighthouse in a sea of the unknown

and when the star went cold
shrinking to the blackest hole
well, the light that hit our eyes had not been told

you know, when fireworks fly
they’re just scratches in the sky
and they cut the night to show us what’s behind

it’s true, when fireworks fly
they’re just scratches in the sky
and they cut the night to show us what’s behind
