"Array Of Light" lyrics

As I record my growing pains
I don't wanna be caught eating paint
I used to think I only had two states
Forcibly yellow or a default grey

You said we don't need money to have a good time
While smoking cigarettes you found in an ashtray
You said don't worry about tomorrow
3 AM, Coffee from a sachet
We'll burn those bridges when we come to it
We'll sew our stiches when the bass drum hits
And I know you're filled with an emptiness
So are the speakers before the bassline kicks
Just feel it move through you

I used to think I only had two states
Forcibly yellow or a default grey
But I open my eyes to signs of life
Outside the binary, a fine array of light
Oh

Well I know that ache in your bones
But in the dirt with the insects, we are never alone
Yeah, our days consist of avoiding being stepped on
But all the earth is our home
So hey, it's okay, welcome to the family
A patchwork tuxedo

I used to think I only had two states
Forcibly yellow or a default grey
But I open my eyes to signs of life
Outside the binary, a fine array of light

Trapped outside kaleidoscope
Cope without ropes around your sounding throat
My weekends used to consist of loosening nooses
But the truth is, you're stronger than you think
So cut through me, a library of flawed parts
A thin cry starts

But truly I carry your heart in my heart
A quiet sonnet that posits melancholic suggestion
But from it we saw its symphonic resurrection
Let the children sleep now, listening to MOBO on loud sound
Emitting from a house that may never be a home

You used to think you only had two states
Forcibly yellow or a default grey
But you opened your eyes to signs of life
Outside the binary, a fine array of light

We used to think we only had two states
Forcibly yellow or a default grey
But we opened our eyes to signs of life
Outside the binary, a fine array of light
