Time Capsule

Mystic yellow buttercup

Like a wand hold it up

To reveal our desires

In our secret hearts

The first time I knew shame

And it gave me a start

Betrayed by nature's golden beam

Trading notes and dressing up

Kissing games and growing up

Skipping ahead

Why couldn't we wait

To gypsy fortunes we'd entrust our fate

I buried a time capsule

Deep in the ground

When I was ten

With my best friend

For a faraway future to find one day

They'd say we wеre alive

We wеre alive

Treasures of then

We sheltered for them

A cracker jack ring and a dandelion stem

The wishes blew off

So we wrote them all down

With the thorn of a rose

In blood it was bound

Shooting pool and throwing darts

Wearing masks and playing parts

I wanna reach for the heart

Of this honeycomb

But it's falling apart

And there's nobody home

The bees are nowhere to be seen

Are they dreaming

Learning love and breaking up

Taking risks and fucking up

Feeling the weight

Feeling the weight

Give the wheel a lively spin

Write the wishes down again

Death knows your name

But you're here just the same

In nature's parlor game

I buried a time capsule

Deep in the ground

When I was ten

With my best friend

For a faraway future to find one day

They'd say they were alive

They were alive

Treasures of then

We sheltered for them

A cracker jack ring, a dandelion stem

The wishes blew off

So we wrote them all down

With the thorn of a rose

In blood it was bound
