Elision - RKCB

Soften up the whites around your eyes dear

Am I building you up?

The elision of love

Touch you like a brush to a stone mirror

These visions are just

The elision of love

Tried my best to make you understand me

Do your lips stop moving

When I turn away?

Try to find a heart where both your hands meet

'Cause I’m falling deeper

With each cut I make

For you I chip away

And your body won’t ever fade

Cast you as my masterpiece

A perfect work of symmetry

Something’s missing

Now that I’ve

Made you for the world to see

An angel with such golden wings

I’ll make you glisten before I let you go

Sometime down the road

Ivy growing up and down your thighs dear

Have I given you up?

My elision of love

Time will tell how much I need you here

'Cause I won’t let you crumble, I won’t disappear

For you I chip away

And your body won’t ever fade

Cast you as my masterpiece

A perfect work of symmetry

Something’s missing

Now that I’ve

Made you for the world to see

An angel with such golden wings

I’ll make you glisten before I let you go

Sometime down the road

Now I want you to remember me

(I molded each moment you gave)

But your shape is changing endlessly

Eyes open, I say

Soften up the whites around your eyes

Cast you as my masterpiece

A perfect work of symmetry

Something’s missing

Now that I’ve

Made you for the world to see

An angel with such golden wings

I envision my elision

I’ll make you glisten before I let you go

Sometime down the road
