lyrics

Dirt on your soles
Blades of grass under fingernails
Water runs cold
Why do I feel this way?

Floating on my back downstream
Jagged rocks and the sun setting
As blood is dripping from your forearm
And pooling on the loose packed earth

The shape of all stability
Metal spikes and tree roots deep
Distant warm, abilities
We awoke to something new
We awoke to something new
We awoke to something new

Or so we hoped the night before
And every night before as far back
As we can remember which isn't very far
At all

And so we trudge from day to night
And so we trudge from day to night
Toiling in a bog up to our thighs
Toiling in a bog up to our thighs

We are harvesting the difference
we are carving out the negative- space
We are etching ourselves, and our names

Into the concrete that won't last
Nearly as long as we'd like to believe

One day we'll awake to something new
One day we'll awake to something new
One day we'll awake to something new
One day we'll awake and we will know

Just as we knew the nights before
And every night that has come before

All our bodies are a cage
Maybe it's best that we forget
