Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Came to light on a very hot day
The grass was sweating
You were sleeping in
With the window open
The blanket breathing
Cigarette on a golden ash tray
Your golden hair lay
In the swollen sunray
The withered roses hangin' in the doorway
[Verse 2]
Don't wanna be right
Don't wanna be let down
Don't wanna fight
Don't wanna pretend
Formless secret
Heavy bend
Heavy bend
[Verse 3]
Second sight and the clouds above you
As the wilderness grew thicker and the crow flew
Tossing and turning, your forehead burning
[Verse 4]
Don't wanna be right
Don't wanna be let down
Don't wanna fight
Don't wanna defend
Formless secret
Heavy bend
[Verse 5]
From the empty height
Flies on the ceiling now
Wanna hold you tight
Don't wanna pretend
Formless secret
Heavy bend
Heavy bend
Heavy bend
