Bathurst

from At Home​/​Not Home by Defne

lyrics

Press your calloused hands to my back
And feel it breaking

Press your ears to my mouth and hear
My teeth breaking

Oh

Things always feel like they fall at a divide
If I kiss his face, will he remember?
Here in the back the devil makes work for your idle hands
So press me tightly around your boozy breath
And tell me that you love me

Callouses feel like sandpaper as they brush my cheeks
Your eyelashes are little razors as they cut my fingers
And my hipbones

Oh

Things always feel like they fall at a divide
Numb and prickly cheeks always bring me back to December
And if I kiss his face, will he remember?

It was a cold month here in Ontario
And I just can't seem to get away from the snow
From the snow
So press me down and wrap me in your lungs
Your boozy breath and cigarettes will keep me warm
Keep me warm

Defne Toronto, Ontario

Defne is a bedroom pop musician from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Their fragile songs of heartache and longing hum with the energy of anticipation. The spaces between falling snowflakes. A sideways glance across a crowded venue. Grass stains on the ankles of your jeans as you run home at 2 in the morning past darkened windows and empty playgrounds. ... more
