Magnetic Fields Lyrics

We both stepped in and held on

And then burst open wide

Exploding stars are helpless

The edges are always undefined

And now I'm turning wrenches

Far from what needs fixing

But your world contained no fences

Full of beauty and suffering

Still I'm waiting for the colors to return to the scenery

Your allure was pulverizing

Absorbing light and slowing time

Just how could I brace for impact

In the garden of your poor design?

Still I'm waiting for the colors to return to the scenery

My desperate words a bleeding fever

While you'd collapse then disappear

Your rising sparks would gather motion

Illuminating the dogs drawn to your fears

On this lonely trail between us

I watch my shadow drag a busted crutch

The only rules of love and battle

To ask for nothing is to ask too much

Too much, too much

To ask for nothing is to ask too much

Too much, too much

Our magnetic fields still pulsing

Bending circles from broken lines

We were only seeking shelter

While all roads are simply searching for a place to die

Still we're waiting for the colors to return to the scenery

To ask for nothing is to ask too much
