Honeycombs Lyrics

i wasn't there
when my mother
and my father
saw in each other
stars and planets
spinning in sadness
but i think of it now
and i'm wondering how
it felt in the silence
and if the rest of life
felt more like an island

the honeycombs
depend on each other
for the structure
and survival of the hive
and although
they didn't choose it
living in eternity
is gonna prove it
as just exactly what was
meant to be

what were the neurons
in both of their heads doing?
were they singing a sad,
sad song?
and what could they say,
that they didn't think
already anyway?
did their spirits align
like they did at the time
that my fate as their daughter
was sealed in an
aquarian water?

when my mother
and my father
saw in each other
stars and planets
spinning in sadness
but i think of it now
and i'm wondering how
it felt in the silence
and if the rest of life
felt more like an island

the honeycombs
depend on each other
for the structure
and survival of the hive
and although
they didn't choose it
living in eternity
is gonna prove it
as just exactly what was
meant to be

i wasn't there
when my mother
and my father
saw in each other
stars and planets
spinning in sad, sad, sadness
felt around them
hearts and futures
swimming in sad, sad, sadness
saw stars and planets
spinning in sad, sad, sad, sadness
