lyrics

Westward, the sky set aflame
as the last gasp of warmth was breathed by the dying day
our cheeks reflected rosy against the sky
and the horizon lay broken as a feast before our eyes
but my antlers will become apparent
as the jealousy will infect the meat adorning our bones
our eyes will remain evasive
I guess I'll only know your shape when my eyes are closed
In the dark you couldn't see it
but as my bones almost met your healthy body at the knee
my rosy cheeks weren't just reflections
and the hairs on my arms fought to stand up through my fleece
that night the sky seemed closer than ever
as the constellations cried hot streams of momentary light
though I was warm inside our secrets
as our breath cut hotly through the cold November night
and I'll stay warm inside those secrets
and my palms will perspire when I think about your eyes
but my antlers will become apparent
as the jealousy will infect the marrow deep inside our bones
as our eyes will remain evasive
I guess I'll only know your shape when my eyes are closed

such a fun album that feels so comfortable and relatable. I specifically like the intro to this song because I take it as a positive reminder that women are sensual and fun but also strong, independent, and free haha Baylee Nguyen
