Cloud Boat - Portraits of Eyes lyrics

Each one filled me with closed eyes and falling Like a key for the lock to my mouth Every night seemed like an end to the dreaming And the wait… Even time screamed like the nausea ending But sometimes the sickness came back This every day was like a new kind of crawling around I went in search of peace of mind And my family's eyes Imagine all the space I'd find… Please don't cry if I ask The way to the rope my love I'm not gonna tie any knots I just need you to hold on while I go down I've started to wander outside of the walls And map out the darkness around The first page of my map is in colour A scrapbook for all that I love The second page of my map is all selfish desires And looks like the work of a child Nobody needs to know the rest of my country I see all I need and it's mine Nobody needs to know that I can't breathe or love
