lyrics

You’re the map to the memories
The string that leads us home
You conduct the electricity
The paint that colours my monochrome
I’m the hat that I raise to you
The ring around the bone
You untangle the complexity
All pain will just leave us alone

And I win because: you
And I win because: you
And I win because: you

Years and years and months and days
Just melt away
Fears and tears and slumps and weights
Just melt away

You’re the light when the sun is down
The singing voice below
You’re the luck when my fingers cross
The angel in the snow

And I win because: you
And I win because: you
And I win because: you

I’ll grow to be like you
Then I’ll know just what to do
I will water all the plants that make a home bloom
I may have said this all before
But I will paint every last door
Until our hallway floods like a kaleidoscope

And we’ll win because: us
And we’ll win because: us
And we’ll win because: us
And we’ll win because: us
And we’ll win because: us
And we’ll win because: us
