Wallow
Monkey Swallows The Universe
It’s so cold in your arms
I fall asleep on your bones
Time’s come and gone, it’s early
The blinds are down on me
Lay still, lay deep, lay long now
Welcome all your weaknesses home now
I want to answer and you’re making me come
I do not weep, you stay young
I do not weep, you stay young
For someone might take you away
For reason for which I can’t complain
So you can wallow in what I made for myself
You can wallow
Your darkest days you’ll spend here
Your brightest dreams you’ll leave here
My love, my one, be happy
It’s only time, it’s only time
Forget that – I’m nothing you want
Pretend that – I’m something you could love
I’m tired of sleep, talk to me
I do not weep, you kill me
I do not weep, you kill me
For someone might take you away
For reasons for which I can’t complain
So you can wallow in what I made for myself
You can wallow
