About

How she tells the story to her own grandaughter

Lyrics

Verse 1

Silver spoons

Sinking in the soapy gray

Grandma says

Wait

Dry them with two different towels

Just wait

She claims the porcelain holds a heat

A secret friction

A hum

Rubbing circles until I feel it

The way she felt it

Back then

Dirty water

Holy water

Chorus

She read how when she was just a girl

She read how when she was just a girl

Suds and steam

Pink and white

Keep the plate

Hold it tight

Hold it tight

Hold it tight

Post-Chorus

La la la

Scrub it clean

La la la

What does it mean

Verse 2

No bikes

Cold steel between the knees

She feared the spill

She feared the red

Broken legs and bitter blood

No husband wants a girl with a hollow head

A shattered skull

A mess

Stay inside

Stay safe

Stay silent

Chorus

She read how when she was just a girl

She read how when she was just a girl

Suds and steam

Pink and white

Keep the plate

Hold it tight

Hold it tight

Hold it tight

Bridge

But the calendars flipped

The years are heavy

The sky is open

Look at me now

Look at the air

Look at the ground

I am rising

I am flying

I am gone

Verse 3

2035

Magnetic humming in the drive

Hovering

Upside down

Gravity is a ghost story

Grandma looks up

I look down

Look Grandma

I can't fall

I can't break

I am the sky

Chorus

She read how when she was just a girl

She read how when she was just a girl

Suds and steam

Pink and white

Keep the plate

Hold it tight

Hold it tight

Hold it tight

Outro

No watermarks

No watermarks

Perfectly clean

I am the machine

Floating away

Floating away

Away
