[Verse 1]
Nineteen, faded in the sunlight
Folded under eyes of blue
Champagne-ink sky, thunder night
Singing about me singing about you
[Pre-Chorus]
In the shadow of the steam
In the echoes of the dream
There's slow happiness
In the polar pull of age
In the glacial pace of days
Find slow happiness
[Chorus]
Drawn by moth-light
The waiting state
Drawn by moth-light
The waiting state
[Verse 2]
Signing sunshine sadness
A startle in the starless dark
Limbs caught mid-flight, first light
Like a bud that's shed its bark
[Pre-Chorus]
In the shadow of the steam
In the еchoes of the dream
Thеre's slow happiness
In the polar pull of age
In the glacial pace of days
Find slow happiness
[Chorus]
Drawn by moth-light
The waiting state
Drawn by moth-light
The waiting state
[Bridge]
Aged before your eyes, a standing wave
You cannot hear that voice, but you know what it would say
And the wave running up our chest
And the weight that it has left
Heavenly daughter, soap and saltwater
And the wave running up our chest
And the traits that it has left
A gift to sing over, a gift to sing over
[Outro]
Drawn by moth-light
Drawn by moth-light
Doubled meaning, doubled meaning
Drawn by moth-light
Drawn by moth-light
I don't mean it, I don't mean it
