Chamomile Hall

today you’re just a gemstone
a gilded hall that crawls with spies
you glisten filled with water
and through the walls I hear your sighs

slip your shirt off
slip your shirt off
fix your hair without a sound
let the floor shift
just ignore it
you won’t find me now

I find the exit, the one thing I can climb through
the stranger in me stares blankly at the stranger in you
I seal it shut before you see I’m not there
you’ll still show up so well prepared

it was in your dreaming face
the reason why I can’t compare
how easily I fell in
and believed that I could stand to feel you there

it means nothing
it means nothing
a little mark on the life you’ve made
to lie down softly
weigh down upon me
these ghosts forever unnamed

I feel my way to the exit and I climb through
the stranger in me stares blankly at the stranger in you
I seal it shut before you see I’m not there
I’m no longer sure, no longer scared

today you’re just a gemstone
the gleam of what you leave behind
the gleam of how I wish
I never took that glimpse inside
the gleam of all you showed me
the brightest side there is to life
as it works out for you
as you’ve told me oh so many times

someone takes a shine
so you know where you’ll be staying
in your life it is so cut and dry

it never gets any easier
it never gets any easier
