Like a spiral staircase she stands in the corner of my mind Silently
And everyone was there You were there and I was there And the sun shone so determined It tarnished our skin
And we can no longer pass as ghosts We shook like trees All in a row As we stared up at the luscious throat of this raw summer
And none of us faltered We let ourselves be kissed Our backs, our necks, our shoulders Until the dark took over To lick us clean
And we can no longer pass for ghosts And I became you And you became her ’Til it no longer mattered Where we came from Or how we got here We have always been here And we can no longer pass as ghosts
We have always been the static We have always been the sea We have always been screamin’ Been screamin’, been screamin’ Been screamin’ Silently
