Daniel Rossen – Tangle Lyrics

 

Tangle Lyrics by Daniel Rossen

 

Like a shot fired from above
A hurricane just cleared the air
And sent waters crashing at the bridge

Terror kept us shaking but it was something to behold
Standing at the gash there in the road
It was a perfect place
It was meant for me
It was magic but I knew it couldn’t last

This feeling’s familiar but it’s colder than before
Sleeping in the hills above our home
Was it always this way?
Was it choice or fate?
Was it motion that was keeping us alive?

The breath between us
One thousand voices
Our tangled branches blanched in the sun

The slow smothering of a fire
One limb against another
One’s a louse and one’s a waste
Quiet, crushed, invalid
Cheeks flushed, tempers brim
I’d go on if I could only see your face
Begin to lift
Begin to breathe
