wildfire - oldsoulma lyrics

Loading...

[verse]
i won’t deny it
there is music
shaking in the words you choose
but it’s got nothing to do with you

like the rain crawls
up through the roots
like the tide pools
pull at the moon
nothing to do with you

it’s the poetry i lent to you
it’s the quiet i pulled out of you
the way my leaving felt like charity

it was the pointed rocks of the gravel drive
that tore up the soles of my feet
nothing to do with you

[chorus]
you did not pursue
the conversation, didn’t feel like it used to
i could not say why
but the silence burned like a wildfire
[verse]
we pause at a bend in the road
where it skirts the edge of a meadow
i turn around to look at you

and say “i don’t expect you to change
i guess we just get so stuck in our own grooves
i don’t know what you want me to tell you,”

[bridge]
and you know i always hated men
before i knew you
you remember how the mist rose off
of the lake in the morning
we started drinking early
it was rising
it was rising
and then it just dissolved

and you know i never noticed much
before i knew you

[chorus]
you did not reply
the conversation just didn’t feel right
i could not say what it was
(it was)
you did not reply
something half*formed you couldn’t verbalize
got stuck in your sternum
and the silence burned like a wildfire
