lyrics

When I was a younger version of me I couldn't wait to die
nothing surprising, nothing to see
what's on the other side

all of my limits bound to my hull
just a bunch of skin and bones
there's so much more than feet on the floor
fighting time alone

back in a body again

did i want depression of roots in position
or the sun when it burned
or was it the torture to suffer the weight
of forgetting how it worked

maybe i annoyed a god or didn't like the truth
maybe i craved how much it hurts to break myself in two

back in a body again

more and more of you break down my walls
but i see through your skin
something about you, even your shell
i've seen before and since

problem is, you're stuck too
and clocks, they keep their tick
you belong out there and free
but i like the one you picked

back in a body again
