the color bars – slivers of green lyrics
[verse 1]
this is the dirt that i squish with my feet
these are the worms underneath
she is the ballerina who performs
atop the broken sundial
[verse 2]
leaves are the shelter for scared ladybugs
blocking the rain from above
high in the trees are the prisoners of war
who wait for puddles to form
[chorus]
rachel don’t you climb the wall
why should we leave the garden?
l!ck the morning with your tongue
swallow the afternoon
[verse 3]
this is the air that i take in my lungs
here’s where i’ll lie when i’m done
next to the gargoyle stoic and old
atop the moss+covered gate
[chorus]
rachel don’t you climb the wall
why should we leave the garden?
l!ck the morning with your tongue
swallow the afternoon
[outro]
up from the topsoil, slivers of green
grow tall and tickle our feet
