Close your eyes
All of us alone tonight
Whisper low
A coded message through the wire
I'm outside
My cellphone, for once I don't mind
Your thoughts are seamless, curling slow
Neon faded, just like mine
Don't worry hard about the war we fight
Chances in chaos, they got all too fun
Sooner or later, you know all of us will bleed
My darling Velveteen
Tie-dyed in this fever dream
Scarlet blush
I'm colored so deliriously
Don't worry hard about the world on fire
Chance into chaos, it so easily turns
Sooner or later, ashes are all that will be
My darling Velveteen
My darling Velveteen
Last night
I lie before imagining you
Riding on sparkling lunar tides
I reached for what seemed
To be your hand
And felt
The ground falling far from my feet
But in the daylight, I saw everything
Left here to ponder all that it could mean
Sooner or later, all of us must become real
Don't worry hard about the things we do
We're so far off, I can't remember you
Sooner or later and you won't remember me
My darling Velveteen
My darling Velveteen
My darling Velveteen
