Elision

Soften up the whites around your eyes, dear
 Am I building you up?
 The elision of love
 Touch you like a brush to a stone mirror
 These visions are just
 The elision of love
 Tried my best to make you understand me
 Do your lips stop moving
 When I turn away?
 Try to find the heart where both your hands meet
 'Cause I'm falling deeper
 With each cut I make
 For you, I'll chip away
 ♪
 And your body won't ever fade
 Cast you as my
 Cast you as my masterpiece
 A perfect work of symmetry
 Something's missing
 Now that I've made you for the world to see
 An angel with such golden wings
 I'll make you glisten before I let you go
 Sometime down the road
 Ivy growing up and down your thighs, dear
 Have I given you up?
 My elision of love
 Time will tell how much I need you here
 'Cause I won't let you crumble
 I won't disappear
 For you, I'll chip away

 Sometime down the road
 ♪
 And now I want you to remember me
 I molded each moment you gave
 But your shape is changing endlessly
 Eyes open, I say
 Soften up the whites around your eyes
 Cast you as my masterpiece
 A perfect work of symmetry
 Something's missing
 Now that I've made you for the world to see
 An angel with such golden wings
 I envision my elision
