lyrics

I remember we were six years old,
We used to hunt for ghosts as though
the world at large was not enough for us

We used to hunt for snakes and bugs
as if the human experience was not enough
Those ghosts caught up with us

So take some leaves when the cold limbs creak
Fluorescent fingers point towards nothing
And every ache is a ghost of a break
Dig in your pockets and hurt until spring
Take some leaves

I remember looking up to see plastic bags
hanging from the trees like ghosts above your street
I don't like feeling all my feelings
Squeezing out the meaning of the last leaves left
Left on the tree limb
Everything has left or it is leaving

So take some leaves when the cold limbs creak
Fluorescent fingers point towards nothing
And every ache is a ghost of a break
Dig in your pockets and hurt until spring
Take some leaves
