[Verse 1]
Mother Earth, cradle me
In your arms of pine trees
I don’t want to feel the world turn
Cover me in warm air
I know it’s summer somewhere
Lay me with the fern
[Pre-Chorus 1]
No more bedtime stories
Heartbreak allegories
I just wanna hear from
Achilles
[Chorus]
Hold me still
Hold me tight
Stop me shaking
Through the night
I don’t wanna pass my pain
Calm the water
Calm the light
Heal the aching
End the fight
I just want a life in beige
[Verse 2]
Blurry visions of our flesh
How much of me is there left?
I don’t need to live a long life
Clearing algae from the pond
Making pathways for swans
Like I even know what’s right
[Pre-Chorus 2]
No more half-love stories
No more romance for me
I just wanna hear from
You
Achilles
[Chorus]
Hold me still
Hold me tight
Stop me shaking
Through the night
I don’t wanna pass my pain
Calm the water
Calm the light
Heal the aching
End the fight
I just want a life in beige
Mother Earth, cradle me
In your arms of pine trees
I don’t want to feel the world turn
Cover me in warm air
I know it’s summer somewhere
Lay me with the fern
[Pre-Chorus 1]
No more bedtime stories
Heartbreak allegories
I just wanna hear from
Achilles
[Chorus]
Hold me still
Hold me tight
Stop me shaking
Through the night
I don’t wanna pass my pain
Calm the water
Calm the light
Heal the aching
End the fight
I just want a life in beige
[Verse 2]
Blurry visions of our flesh
How much of me is there left?
I don’t need to live a long life
Clearing algae from the pond
Making pathways for swans
Like I even know what’s right
[Pre-Chorus 2]
No more half-love stories
No more romance for me
I just wanna hear from
You
Achilles
[Chorus]
Hold me still
Hold me tight
Stop me shaking
Through the night
I don’t wanna pass my pain
Calm the water
Calm the light
Heal the aching
End the fight
I just want a life in beige
