Silk and the Spin Cycle

[Intro]
[Verse]
Fluorescent hum in the air
Tide pods and messy hair
Dryer number four is loose
Kicking like it’s got no use
You sit on the plastic chair
With a quiet velvet stare
[Pre-Chorus]
My thoughts are drifting wide
Nowhere left for me to hide
Just the rhythm of the drum
And the way you make me numb
[Chorus]
Folding silk in the night
Underneath the dim light
Softest touch I’ve ever seen
Somewhere in the space between
Restrained now
Keep it plain now
[Post-Chorus]
Restrained now
Keep it plain now
Oh the silk and the steam
Living in a waking dream
[Verse]
Paisley patterns in your hand
Like a map of distant land
Emerald greens and ruby reds
Woven with some ancient threads
You smooth out every crease
Finding your own kind of peace
[Pre-Chorus]
The steam is rising high
I don't even have to try
To feel the pull of your soul
Losing all of my control
[Chorus]
Folding silk in the night
Underneath the dim light
Softest touch I’ve ever seen
Somewhere in the space between
Restrained now
Keep it plain now
[Bridge]
Is the universe just lint?
Giving us a little hint?
Cycles turn and cycles break
How much magic can we take?
Upright bass begins to walk
While we let the silence talk
[Verse]
You look up and catch my eye
Like a comet in the sky
No words needed for the vibe
It’s a feeling I can’t describe
Just a stranger in the wash
While the heavy minutes squash
[Chorus]
Folding silk in the night
Underneath the dim light
Softest touch I’ve ever seen
Somewhere in the space between
Restrained now
Keep it plain now
[Post-Chorus]
Restrained now
Keep it plain now
Oh the silk and the steam
Living in a waking dream
[Outro]
