Compass

“Compass” is the third song released from Zella Day’s self-titled EP. It’s a subdued love song about seeking emotionally intimate moments with your lover and pursuing them no matter where they go. Due to references to the east and a garden, this song’s likely a direct sequel to East of Eden, which is placed previous in the tracklist.

[Verse 1] We can build a treehouse in the pine trees We can keep our secrets buried underneath Wildflowers crush between your fingers Clinging to the wild things that raised us [Pre-Chorus] Compass points you home Calling out from the east Compass points you anywhere Closer to me If we make it out alive From the depths of the sea Compass points you anywhere Closer to me [Chorus] Where you are, I will be Miles high, in the deep Where you are, I will be Anywhere, in-between [Verse 2] Take me to the garden of your ecstasy Make myself a headband from your fallen leaves Woven in the fabric of your tapestry Cover me in honeysuckle memories [Pre-Chorus] Compass points you home Calling out from the east Compass points you anywhere Closer to me If we make it out alive From the depths of the sea Compass points you anywhere Closer to me [Chorus] Where you are, I will be Miles high, in the deep Where you are, I will be Anywhere, in-between [Bridge] I will take the pieces Put them back together Even when the grass isn't green enough Taking all the branches Build ourselves a mansion Love you in the way that you needed love Where you are, I will be [Chorus] Where you are, I will be Miles high, in the deep Where you are, I will be Anywhere, in-between
