I've been running for a while
I can't hold my breathe no longer, child
I'm sorry for the people lost
They were not helping out my cause
So sweep away the waste and pull back the shades from every table that you have sat at. My teeth weren't made to taste you in this way, but for now they are hungry. I can't remember the last time you and I looked alike, and I won't remember the last time I looked you in the eyes and didn't tell a lie.
I've been around for a while
I've seen hands come in and force a smile
Now that it's just a coin toss
We will not worry about our loss

I've hid from water
I've hid from ground that wasn't mine
I was born with doubt just like my father and given my mothers mind
There are days I wish that I got back
When everyone and everything were like a dream
Like books upon a shelf
Behind the building with my worn out shoes
I'd never thought of hell
Now in a way my bones knew that there would be a day that I worry too much. Right then I saw myself by the ocean where I was buried, so the ships could see my bones and realize that they were home.

Take away everything I am
Take away the skin, my friend
Take away the wind I breathe
Those nights and days are long for me
These nights and days, they long for me
But when the wind blows, my friend
You'll hear the voices of every unsung soul
Take away the wind, my friend
My lungs are better off without it
Take away the skin that I live in
It's just another space for me to rent
Take away everything I am
Take away the wind, my friend

You were a camouflaged caterpillar
Tastefully destroying the leaves that shade me
I was a saddened little tortoise
Lying on the ground beneath your vessel
Wondering where the shade had gone
They were the soil down below us
Collectively supporting both of our bodies
