Magnolia Lyrics - Like Vines - Hush Sound

Your heartbeat is pulsing at night in your chest 

It's gold and it's glowing with all the life you have left 

I received your words from hospitals where you felt alone 

Your words like smoke, they made me sick but they kept me warm 

Run where you'll be safe 

Through the garden gates 

To the shelter of magnolias 

Your eyes are like sea glass, so weathered and worn 

From all they've seen of adolescence torn 

The lovers who have tainted you, they pulled you into the night 

They touched your skin with velvet gloves and made you feel alive 

Run where you'll be safe 

Through the garden gates 

To the shelter of magnolias 

There's not much time 

The blush in the sky begins to fade 

You are weathered and worn 

Your petals soft and torn 

The fading color 

You have bent your shoulders 

To hold the weight of the world 

You will surely shatter 

Run where you'll be safe 

Through the garden gates 

To the shelter of magnolias 

There's not much time 

The blush in the sky begins to fade
