lyrics

Your gaze is like a tiger lily
I can feel your petals trace my shoulder blades
Feels like youth, like warmer weather
Like all the colors could run together

Mile Marker
Stepping stone or hearth stone
We’re all on our own
When it comes to making peace

My days I spend them in cafes
Casual conversation, one more cup of coffee
Keeps me hanging ‘round
Wearing your insights like hand-me-downs

Somewhere between here and New York City
I noticed you had turned away
It’s giving me that instantly familiar feeling
Razorblades confetti my reason
I play the mending game

Mile Marker
Stepping stone or hearth stone
We’re all on our own
When it comes to making peace

Are you my stepping stone, my hearth stone
Either way I never meant to put roots down where I roam
‘Cause when you go
They make that tender tearing sound
When you go
They give so easily
And there’s nothing left to win
There’s nothing here but me

Your gaze is like a tiger lily
But I bought my bouquet here in this city
And this morning I take my roses
Like I take my chances
Like I take my mile markers
My mile markers

Mile marker
Stepping stone, or hearth stone
We're all on our own
We're all on our own
When it comes to making peace
