I has musics

too infinity

I've got all this ringing in my ears
and it's all I'll ever hear
I'm not even sure
what my voice sounds like anymore
now recordings of me are singing you to sleep
now lay close to blankets and sheets,
dream of gentle things, I hope you dream of me

I've got self esteem to match your low cut jeans,
and memories that seem to sting with words I'd hoped you'd say
but in your eyes...

I've got lullabies for days, 
al the things that I'll never say
and scarred hands that only make chords and notes
because I can't hold you close
so dream of gentle things, I hope you dream of me

I've got self esteem to match your low cut jeans
and memories that seem to sting with words I'd hoped you'd say,
but in your eyes...

And I told you most but kept the rest inside,
but in your eyes all i see is summertime
all the things that I won't ever say seem to melt away in your eyes
and I've got self esteem to match your low cut jeans,
and rhythms to match your idioms
a guitar to sing you to sleep,
wherever you are

So dream of gentle things, I hope you dream of me
lay in blankets and sheets, I hope you pretend they're me
recordings of me are singing you to sleep
so dream of gentle things, well I hope you dream of me
