Alluvial Fan

I'm just sitting past my shelf life
Who's left to say otherwise?
I got stuck along my lifeline
Who's left to say otherwise?
I'm just sitting past my shelf life
Who's left to say otherwise?

Mimi made me out of crossed wires
Misfit letters misfired
Tangled spirals, sown in the ground
How i lingered through my whole life
How could I've been so blind
Now I'm past my shelf life
And the song goes

On and on until our yoke gives out
On and on until our yoke gives out
On and on until our rope gives out

Mimi took my hands and traced them over constellations
Showed me how to alchemize
Mimi took my hands to taste them, oh their salty wasteland
Myth and memory galvanize

On and on until our yoke gives out
On and on until our yoke gives out
On and on until our rope gives out

I'm just sitting past my shelf life
Who's left to say otherwise?
Take my hands I'll let you trace them over constellations
Show you how to alchemize
How to-
