lyrics

You’re like a wild animal
A delicate flower
Those words you said
Do you remember
It was right when we met

I’ve been playing this game
In my head
What would’ve happened
Would things not be same
Like smoking no smoking

That bad habit of bending the truth a little bit
Then feeling disproportionately bad about it
Is it karma?
Karma, were you asking for it
Asking for it

The ice dams on the roof
The weight of the snow,
How could you know
Under your blankets you heard it
Collapsing, like a leaf
You were shaking
You ran outside
And ever since
It’s all different

The reassuring sound of the distant sirens
Always brings me back to those hot summer nights
At my grandparents 48th street east apartment
I felt safe back then
I felt safe back then
