Palace

In detail you are even more beautiful than from afar
I could learn you, like the blinded would do
Feeling a way through the dark.

In the darkened house of love
I felt like I was sleeping rough
The bath ran cold.

But this is a palace and that was a squat
Baby there's have alls and there are have nots
I'm happy with what I got.

Winter was long, now we've come to feast
We may be savage and raw but at the core
We've higher needs.

A palace, it's our palace.

The past pulls faces of those who vaguely resemble love
But weren't close enough.

You remind me of the person I wanted to be
Before I forgot.

A palace, it's our palace.;
