Collapse in Gold

Verse 1

Vinyl air, breathing low

Thick with old dreams, gold dust slow

Honey heat, ruined roots

Every breath buried with fruit

Sticky shade under branches spun

Cicadas saw the silence undone

Ghost whispers where sunlight slides

Ghost whispers, ghost whispers

Mouths sweet with rot that hides

So slow

Too slow

Pre-Chorus

Sick sugar on my tongue

Sick sugar on my tongue

Cracked and crawling, singing sun

Cracked and crawling, singing sun

Chorus

Luminous drip, I swallow the night

Collapse in sweet decay, all light

No rush to vanish

Mind stays behind

In the sacred, slow honey ride

Honey ride, honey ride

Patient pain, alive inside

Post-Chorus

Oceans of gold

Oceans of gold

Sinking slow

Sinking slow

Verse 2

Shadows drown in marigold sand

Time bends, bends and breaks my hand

Broken bodies buzzing by

Insects feast, I cannot die

Anaphora unwinds my nerves

Anaphora unwinds my nerves

Everything drips, everything curls

Flesh to sugar, bones to pearls

Pre-Chorus

Sick sugar on my tongue

Sick sugar on my tongue

Heavy haze, eternal sun

Heavy haze, eternal sun

Chorus

Luminous drip, I swallow the night

Collapse in sweet decay, all light

No rush to vanish

Mind stays behind

In the sacred, slow honey ride

Honey ride, honey ride

Patient pain, alive inside

Bridge

Slip deeper deeper deep

Hands gone, heat in the sleep

Pleasure, poison, blending blind

The soft invasion of time

Chorus

Luminous drip, I swallow the night

Collapse in sweet decay, all light

No rush to vanish

Mind stays behind

In the sacred, slow honey ride

Honey ride, honey ride

Patient pain, alive inside

Post-Chorus

Gold on my tongue

Gold on my tongue

Ocean calls

Ocean calls

Outro

I let the sweetness crawl

I let the sweetness crawl

I let the sweetness crawl

Until I dissolve

Until I dissolve
