Kevin Devine - Billion Bees Lyrics

Send "Billion Bees" ringtone to your cell

I found you grieving in the grass

Sky blood water color blue

You seem so simple sure and sad

So I sat down to grieve with you

You raised your hand to shield your eyes

I shifted left to block the sun

You crossed your legs and cleared your throat

I waited for you words to come

But they slept soundly in your chest

They never made it past your tongue

So we sat silently and still

We thought about the things wed done

And all the people that we loved

And all the people that we wronged

I watched the years flash through your face

Locked my anger in my lungs

So every breath stung more and more

A wave of wips across my spine

A billion bees trapped in my chest

Nails on chalkboard every time

Til I watched your fingers sneak towards mine

I heard your breath go thing and short

I tucked your hair behind your ears

And watched your eyes dart back and forth

I sucked your lip and bit your neck

The trees were shaking at their roots

My angry arms fell cool and calm

My cotton mouth was well with you

So we lay glowing in the grass

To watch the sun swamp with the moon

Trade our future for our past

Present tense was all we knew
