underneath the leaves
All hail the swelling sun As acid seeps and autumn bleeds And the glowing has just begun Every winter time is kindly now The ground is sprouting out I got my shirt off and my face up against The ground  And I found the key Underneath the leaves I was complete  All hail the swelling sun Nikki I'm coming down I'm coming down On everyone I shut my eyes and I see patterns of things: Grids of baby toys and flying drones Upspeakable fiends  And I found the key Underneath the leaves I was set free  And I found the key Underneath the leaves I was complete
