Your Favorite Jacket

Wait for the sunshine
Wait for the ice to melt
It’s been a long one
And this hibernation feels like hell
So give me a feel-good
Give me the days that last till eight
Think I’ll feel better in warmer ways

But don’t tell the carnivores we’re caught outside
With our hearts wide open
Stuck to the seat on the 16 hour drive
But I’m still hoping

That all my love is true
And it’s not lost on you
Left in the catacombs
With a hand in my heart
And a part of me drowning in a palindrome
‘Cause when I got it blue
Yeah, it blinds everything
With a chemical shade of rust
Until I’m done placing all of my peace
On the measure of two pressure fronts

Wait for the cool down
Wait for the Autumn drives
Your favorite jacket
Pulled from subconscious shelves inside
A chilly morning
To cool our overheated summer hands
Wait for the snowfall till we wish it all away

Again and again it’s the skin we hide behind
In our guarding garments
But the thrill of the heat is the only thing inside
Keeping me honest

If all my love is true
And it’s not lost on you
Left in the catacombs
With a hand in my heart
And a part of me drowning in a palindrome
‘Cause when I got it blue
Yeah, it blinds everything
With a chemical shade of rust
Until I’m done placing all of my peace
On the measure of two pressure fronts
