The Difference In The Shades

Lyrics

Now that it's June, we'll sleep out in the garden
 And if it rains, we'll just sink into the mud
 Where it is quiet and much cooler than the house is
 And there is no clocks or phones to wake us up
 'Cause I have learned that nothing is as pressing
 As the one who is pressing would like you to believe
 And I'm content to walk a little slower
 Because there's nowhere that I really need to be
 And I find that life is easier
 When it is just a blur with no details to confuse
 Who or what or where I was
 So when the ending comes, the full regret will seem obscure
 ♪
 But these are days we dream about
 When the sunlight paints us gold
 And this apartment could not be prettier
 As we danced up there alone
 And this TV's old, the color's fucked
 Do you see the difference in the shades?
 But the green's still close to green, my love
 And I believe we are the same
 And we'll stay like this, all gold and green
 Light collects and projects your heart on a movie screen
 And if you close your eyes, we will always be
 The way we were that night, you crawled inside of me
 And you slept in my blood the way you sleep now
 The quietest hush has consumed this house
 And when the doctors have gone, and you sweat through the bed
 With pictures and pills, they piled around your head
 ♪
 Just rest now
 ♪
 And in a moment you'll know everything
 Was it all a dream, it's too vague now to recount?
 An outline of the one you loved
 In a life that was, that no longer will be
 ♪
 Stands above you
 As you sleep
