Geologic Time

from I Love Birds by Coyote Wall

you make
my world shake
you’re my orogeny

from your crust to your core
baby i want more
isn’t it plain to see

and you told me to sit and be patient
i can’t help it i love your formation

oh you say i’m a fool, i won’t wait till you cool
geologic time

up on pangaea
when i see ya
there’s gonna be an eruption

cause when we collide
we’re gonna slip and slide
i’m a master of subduction 

in the glow of the molten rock
we can bask in the aftershock

heaven-sent to my sediment 
geologic time
geologic time 

you
have been around for a long long time
and i
i’ll be steep and shallow if you’re so inclined 

i’ll build my city on your fault line
you’re magnetic and oh so fine 
and if it’s true that you wanna be mine 
bring the heat and pressure baby we’ll make a diamond

you make
my world shake
deep in my ore deposit

and just know
when i finally blow
you’ll be the one to cause it

well my heart beats all supersonic
in awe of your force tectonic

i wanna grow old 
with you baby you’re gold
geologic time
