lyrics
all those holes in your head that let you out
all those limbs that branch out and walk around
all the air flowing through your teeth and mouth
blood burrows through your heart as it pounds and pounds
but how do you know where your body ends when you’re up to your neck in the softest sand
how do you know it’s not what you’ve conceived when your eyes are made to see the seeds your mind will plant to furnish your beliefs
does that seed in your head keep you awake
or your broken arms all that dead weight
today your skin is hot and it loves to shout
but it’s locked it will never let you out
the skin from my hands will collapse and feed the sand the golden earth the emerald grass will be my second birth
the blood from my veins will pour out and create stains across the ground bending air into a joyous sound
all our sand will separate and fill up all the empty space
all our blood will evaporate and mend all of the cracks we’ve made
all those limbs that branch out and walk around
all the air flowing through your teeth and mouth
blood burrows through your heart as it pounds and pounds
but how do you know where your body ends when you’re up to your neck in the softest sand
how do you know it’s not what you’ve conceived when your eyes are made to see the seeds your mind will plant to furnish your beliefs
does that seed in your head keep you awake
or your broken arms all that dead weight
today your skin is hot and it loves to shout
but it’s locked it will never let you out
the skin from my hands will collapse and feed the sand the golden earth the emerald grass will be my second birth
the blood from my veins will pour out and create stains across the ground bending air into a joyous sound
all our sand will separate and fill up all the empty space
all our blood will evaporate and mend all of the cracks we’ve made
