Winding Ivy - The Lulls in Traffic

I spent a long time alone

So your companionship feels like home to me

Infatuated with your glimmer

I guess you could say you’ve grown on me

Or over me, above me, lovely

But I look at you, I feel ugly

But content knowing I have you and can grasp you

Even if I don’t understand you

So I make the most of it

'Cause I’m tired of making the least of it

And even though your leaves can get a bit tight

And I’m learning to seed myself

Always with you

And as the seasons get colder lately

It’s no longer an issue

You embrace

You’re not even gone yet, but I miss you

Could you save me?

I found you darker than the sky above

But brighter than what my love could shine through

And you’re leaving me alone

After kissing me blindly

After holding me tightly

And when your beauty faded out

What was left to choke me out here but this winding ivy?

And when the night falls you’ll come back to me

Wrap your arms around my wasted body

And kiss the back of my sunburnt shoulder

While you grew stronger, I just grew older

Soon you’ll whisper you’re sorry

And you miss me, darling

And I’ll let you be

I’ll let your love lay over me

I found you darker than the sky above

But brighter than what my love could shine through

And you’re leaving me alone

After kissing me blindly

After holding me tightly

And when your beauty faded out

What was left to choke me out here but this winding ivy?
