Lyrics for Pennyweight

Where have I been? Blearing pacific winds Crossing foothills, constructing stories Ruptured earth guiding me home Romantic fault lines A bridge's quake in my bones A place we called home A distance we have learned Pull me in, and help me out (of this hemisphere) I want to swim amidst the satellites Sinking to the bottom. I exhale Close my eyes- Disengage Here. There is no there. Give me (indication). Give me (separation) With everything seeming pulse-less Give me (indication). Give me (separation) I'm drifting into oblivion And there's no place I'd rather be I'm drifting into oblivion Isolated in black- My thoughts spin My worlds divide I am lost in space Burning up in the atmosphere When I finally come crashing down Wrap my bones inside miracles A safe place- I am finally home Pull me in, and help me out (of this hemisphere) I want to swim amidst the satellites Sinking to the bottom. I exhale Close my eyes- Disengage Here. There is no there. Give me (indication). Give me (separation) With everything seeming pulse-less Give me (indication). Give me (separation) I'm drifting into oblivion Now I'm slipping away.
