Lyrics:

It’s already June.
The light paints you pink
when it breaks through the cherry trees.
You shout at the moon.
We lay on your swing.
I’m right where I’m meant to be.

The gray moves aside
for the first time in my life,
so I think that I
got the dosage right.

Devil in your blood,
the dull, unmoored ache,
the same one that haunted me.

But the bearings could rust,
and the circuit could break,
if I love you entirely.

I’m finding hope in the pocket of my winter coat
with your gloves—a reminder that I’m not alone.

I’m scared to my bones
that I won’t find a way
to keep you and your brother safe.

A fire eats the coast
as the sea levels raise.
It’s like we’re circling the drain.

The news keeps getting worse—
the floods or the drought?
There’s a mass shooting weekly now.

And it feels like you’re cursed,
like we’re letting you down.
So, I’m gonna dig you out.

I’m finding hope in the pocket of my winter coat
with your gloves—a reminder that I’m not alone.
You’re brave, so I’m brave, or I’m trying anyway.
Put the work in, plant a garden, try to stay afloat.

I don’t wanna die, ‘cause I gotta protect you.
You’re the reason I can’t leave here yet—
the reason I don’t want the world to end.

I don’t wanna die.
I wanna light you through your darker months.
I wanna swallow the sun
before it can swallow us.

I’m calling home. Hear you laughing in the afterglow
and the reasons to abandon all my former ghosts.
‘Cause you’re brave, so I’m brave, or I’m trying anyway.
Put the work in, plant a garden, try to stay afloat.
