Push Pull

  • You were young and you'd start
    With a reverence unimpaired
    There was an echo far and faint
    Beneath the air remained
    You were young and you'd stare
    Where my limbs hung far and fair
    Make a ladder of what folds
    And climb up in the air

    You push and you pull and you tell yourself no
    It's like when you lie down, the veins grow in slow
    You push and you pull but you'd never know
    I crept up in you and I wouldn't let go

    There was no light and I swear
    I could see your raring fear
    I heard the plains moaning back
    I saw the thunder roll o'er black
    There was no light and I swear
    We sat still in our fear
    Make a ladder of what folds
    And climb up in the air

    You push and you pull and you tell yourself no
    It's like when you lie down, the veins grow in slow
    You push and you pull but you'd never know
    I crept up in you and I wouldn't let go

    (And I)
    Carve out the spaces (and I)
    Imparted graces (and I)
    I couldn't shake it (and I)

    I built a constellation lair
    Out of the moles that hovered there
    A fever billowed with the wind
    And I bade the sky therein
    I built a constellation lair
    Out of the moles that hovered there
    Make a pardon of what knows
    And climb up in the air

    You push and you pull and you tell yourself no
    It's like when you lie down, the veins grow in slow
    You push and you pull but you'd never know
    I crept up in you and I wouldn't let go

    You push and you pull and you tell yourself no
    It's like when you lie down, the veins grow in slow
    You push and you pull but you'd never know
    I crept up in you and I wouldn't let go Writer/s: Cecil Frena, Corin Roddick, Megan James
