lyrics

There's a sunrise in my stomach
48 hours of night and day and mood
A solar system of good intentions
Can't help me to live within my limitations

What am I?

Every line around your eyes, I've memorized
Every line and every space in you I'll grow my seed
Every line on my palm is a promise
To hunt you and consume you with all my heat

And just you try
Just you try to fool yourself that the warmth you feel is not about me
Just you try

There's a sun setting in my stomach
48 hours of wet and sweat and mood
A solar system of good intentions
Can't help me to know what I am to you

What am I?
