lyrics

WEATHERED

On a high, rising up off cement.
It's taken arduous years to reinvent
Strong bones shattered by diffidence.

You always said you'd never want, never need, never ask for a hand.
Work it off, saving up the recompense.
Write me off, ship me out, and don't look back.
You'll never make it out alive.

You will find new beginnings, so unweathered,
As I plague mine full of doubt.

I will choke on new beginnings,
As you find your way.
Let's our hearts on novel sights and sounds.

On a low, swallowing dirt & stone.
It's not much to like, but it's all I've known.
Ill will shielded by poise and tone.

Now the frequencies amidst drowning ears, it's static we hear.
Though I hate its rhythms, it calls me near.
Keep me close, darling dear, just so you know
I'm never getting out alive.
You'll never make it out alive.

You will find new beginnings, so unweathered,
As I plague mine full of doubt.

I will choke on new beginnings,
As you find your way.
Let's set our hearts on novel sights and sounds.

You will find new beginnings, so unweathered,
As I plague mine full of doubt.

I will choke on new beginnings,
As you find your way.
We'll set our hearts on novel sights and sounds.
