The Meteorite EP Lyrics
Can I Still Come Over
Write me a book
Write me a song
Write me a letter your whole lifetime long
Tell me your stories
Sing me your hymns
Fill me up slowly
I started bloodletting so I went away
Guess there’s no forgetting what I did that day
I lost all our pictures
Kept all my scars
Still have your sweater in the trunk of my car
You are the cornfield where I might escape
You’re the do-good sheriff giving me to the state
I am the promise you can’t help but break
Can I still come over?
I took up smoking to quiet my mouth
I tended my fire so much it went out
I need a message; any will do
Fill me up slowly
There’s this cathedral. I wanna go
And wait like a foundling in the first pew row
Some other arms come and take me away
Some other family with some other name
You are the spoil I wanted to keep
You’re the midnight oil not letting me sleep
I am your laundry that never comes clean
Can I still come over?
All this undoing needs to be undone
All this undoing needs to be undone
Undo my undoing, oh, undoing one
You are the mainsail, but I am off-course
You are a centerpiece. I’m in the drawer
You’re a proposal. I’m a divorce
Can I still come over?
