lyrics

Like flowers, shadows bloom
Like flowers, shadows wilt
Dark times bleached out by the sun
Self-doubt shriveled and killed

Chirps in the trees, chakra stimulant
Winter worries freed, untangled dissonance

It was as if an occult hand had
Struck from above and reset the slab
A reason to wring myself out
The season my health shell gets punched out
The breeze blesses my skin
Like a kiss blown straight from heaven
In my element: heat hellish
My smile widens the more my flesh reddens

Give it to the universe, get it back in spades

Source of my sorcery, root of my reign in the rays
Sky parted like the red sea, departure of pain

Crystal antler, turquoise tusk
Evening enchanter hovering under a violet dusk
Swirl of my sweet summer cloudscape
Put me to sleep under your soothing evening gaze

Like flowers, shadows bloom
Like flowers, shadows wilt
Dark times bleached out by the sun
Self-doubt shriveled and killed

Lunch on the grill on a warm, sunny day
Knucks to the grill if you bring back the grey
Rain on this parade, features rearranged
Try to put out this flame; maimed

Honey, I'm home, alive to the bone
Tryptamine dreams in a dry husk zone
Strength in numbers, strength in none
One way in and out, they say
I'll take the scenic one and run

Give it to the universe, get it back in spades
I gave it to the universe and got it back in all the best ways
