Dragon Ash – Ivory

Lyrics: Kj
Music: Dragon Ash

It’s like I’m trying to moisten
My temperature as it begins to worsen
It’s like driving a playful lion insane, a furious morning special¹
This is music for a sunny place
As soon as I woke up I misbuttoned my shirt and my dream
Was dyed in ivory

Look, instead of tracing that picture
You burned yesterday with those fingertips that tore it apart
Burn it in your heart
Remember the drought with its open collar

Now set my heart aflame

Sentiments pour down again
And even the sound of rain soaks them wet
It’s like scraping away a dry life of monotony, a clouding morning special
This is music for a bonfire
A child is lost in a spiral that suddenly became distorted
Ivory lights the way

Go beyond that forest
With no place to rest that could hide the stars
And hop on and make a wish
Even your eyes wish for the days’ harvest

*Yeah, stand up and cry out
Let your feelings and the tracks you left behind bloom
Yeah, stand up and cry out
Find the fire and hold it high
Hold endless love in the daily misery
Hold endless love and sorrow in the daily misery

Look, instead of tracing that picture
You burned yesterday with those fingertips that tore it apart
Burn it in your heart
Remember the drought with its open collar

(Repeat*)

Now set my heart aflame
Melt the gloom away
Dyed in ivory
