In My Dreams - Jenn Grant

My love, take everything I taught you.

Break it down in pieces, let the water

run off you

Sipping on tea from the medicine of witches.

Healing all the creases that got

you down on me

Down on your knees praying to a Jesus.

Darling I bleed every time it hits me

My lips cannot speak of the ways that you got me.

And falling asleep in dreams

that you don’t see

In my dreams that you don’t see

When you get tired of thinking what you can’t be, lay on down beside me and

I’ll keep you here

Long you live in the galaxy of angels, falling off with these spells and you

finally heal

Down on your knees praying to a Jesus.

Darling I bleed every time it hits me

My lips cannot speak of the ways that you got me.

And falling asleep in dreams

that you don’t see

In my dreams that you don’t see

I was laying down upon the sounds that kept me from sleeping with my crown,

dreaming all the things they thought I’d be

They showed me diamonds and gold but not these rivers that I know.

Nothing compares to the real thing baby

I wasn’t here for the chase, but I got caught up in the race and I locked eyes

with the tiger coming for his kill

He whispered, something I know in this life before we go, it matters what you

are before you close that door

In my dreams that you don’t see
