Shiver by Thea Gilmore Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We are knitted like the wool of the sweater on your chest
Yeah, my body is a pillow where your eyes come to rest
In these times of temporary rhymes
Nothing's endless
We are stitched like the skin across the bones of my thighs
I'm the soft scar tissue that you use to dry your eyes
There's such precious little time
Honey let's go break some paradigms
[Chorus]
It's a shiver
It's a second
Just a grace note in the song
It's a shiver
It's a moment
Just a whisper and it's gone
[Verse 2]
We are tied like tongues, we are locked as the land
We are bound in ways that we don't understand
I don't want to be discreet
I just want to drink this lifetime neat
So bring on the phoenix, bring on the rain
Everybody loves the sound of a speeding train
Pack up your apologies
Honey come and waste some time with me
[Chorus]
It's a shiver
It's a second
Just a grace note in the song
It's a shiver
It's a moment
Just a whisper and it's gone
[Bridge]
And there'll be hard lines coming up fast
And those bad times will get dragged from the past
But look forward that time is ours forever
And there will always be saboteurs
Plastic Venus in fake furs
From a wide angle we are just blurred
In the bigger picture
[Chorus]
It's a shiver
It's a second
Just a grace note in the song
It's a shiver
It's a moment
Just a whisper and it's gone
[Outro]
And it's gone
And it's gone
And it's gone
And it's gone
We are knitted like the wool of the sweater on your chest
Yeah, my body is a pillow where your eyes come to rest
In these times of temporary rhymes
Nothing's endless
We are stitched like the skin across the bones of my thighs
I'm the soft scar tissue that you use to dry your eyes
There's such precious little time
Honey let's go break some paradigms
[Chorus]
It's a shiver
It's a second
Just a grace note in the song
It's a shiver
It's a moment
Just a whisper and it's gone
[Verse 2]
We are tied like tongues, we are locked as the land
We are bound in ways that we don't understand
I don't want to be discreet
I just want to drink this lifetime neat
So bring on the phoenix, bring on the rain
Everybody loves the sound of a speeding train
Pack up your apologies
Honey come and waste some time with me
[Chorus]
It's a shiver
It's a second
Just a grace note in the song
It's a shiver
It's a moment
Just a whisper and it's gone
[Bridge]
And there'll be hard lines coming up fast
And those bad times will get dragged from the past
But look forward that time is ours forever
And there will always be saboteurs
Plastic Venus in fake furs
From a wide angle we are just blurred
In the bigger picture
[Chorus]
It's a shiver
It's a second
Just a grace note in the song
It's a shiver
It's a moment
Just a whisper and it's gone
[Outro]
And it's gone
And it's gone
And it's gone
And it's gone
