Karima Walker, Katy Kirby - Violet Lyrics

waking up in the night
to a tap at your window
cutting light of the law
they’re not here to help you
well i wouldn’t give em shit, but it sounds like you did
mmmm

whatever you’re burning off
whatever you’re burning through
houses friends and jobs
there’s something better
I know you’ll get to

taught me all of their names
violet sage and yarrow
but they change all the time
so you let em go
well the patterns I see
they’re not the same in me
mmmm

whatever you’re burning off
whatever you’re burning through
houses friends and jobs
there’s something better
I know you’ll get to

rested in clay
with a wreath on your head
but you braided those branches till your fingers bled
well I don’t care what they say,
I don’t care what they said

whatever you’re burning off
whatever you’re burning through
houses friends and jobs
there’s something better
I know you’ll get to
