The Inuit Promise Lyrics - Downward Is Heavenward - Hum

I took a worn out strand of your cellophane hair 

And stretched it sideways 

And oh my, my, slip though 

Between the seam with me 

My brain stopped working from the cold 

I sort of strayed from what we know 

So I'll be like you and do what's right 

And win a love I don't deserve out on the ice tonight 

Teach me the bluest song you know 

The moon ain't comin' up 

And I swear to God tonight it feels like snow 

I'm glad we got your hands warm 

So my arms can feel like trust again 

I can promise true waves 

When the summer comes 

The world still fits the same form 

We engraved when it all began 

Maybe catch a new wave 

Feels right, feels right 

So we ride whales and drag race time 

And I draw fires from the traces of trilobite hives 

You sleep like god inside her womb 

And you see clearly to the silicon wasteland 

They left inside my mind 

I'm glad we got your hands warm 

So my arms can feel like trust again 

I can promise true waves when the summer comes 

The world still fits the same form 

We engraved when it all began 

Maybe catch a new wave 

We've lost the road now, injecting charms 

And we care for all of ours 

We stand in rows now 

Transfer alarms just like the 

Inuit with the promise song 

To come down and see 

To come down and see 

To come down and see 

To come down and see 

(Your solvents frozen here) 

On the petal rung is all we have to see 

Enlarged inside as we espy the warming sea 

(Your breath diffused and never realized) 

Aside from where the panicked hide 

And I just a subtle lift provider on the other side
