In your face there's a solar system
I am a child who looks at the stars
When you run hands through my hair
In the dark I feel vulnerable, I feel small again
When the storm starts to moan again
Burns the mountain and blows the tree over
And when the flames lick my curtains
Then I'll write us a new place
Because when the weather comes again, it's here to stay
I know the shame and the vulnerability
And I remember we prayed out loud
And I remember we kissed in our school uniforms
So I'll just write us a shelter
Because I know the weather will come to stay
But come again, come again, come again, come again
This time I'm ready
I'll have an axe in my hand
Sometimes you have to break something open
I know about being kicked into the corner and yelling
Pushing you against a windowpane and we both creak
I'll just write myself a shelter
There's a pile of wood burning in place of my mind
But come again, come again, come again, come again
This time I'm ready
In your face there's a solar system
I am a child who looks at the stars
When you run hands through my hair
In the dark I feel vulnerable, I feel small again
