Careful of the morning, careful of the night Careful of them hunting the ideas we leave behind Those preachers and their stories, drunkards and their vows We clung onto each other, there was no one else around Tendons that we are, tendons stretched too far Tangled up and heavy, winding steady Tender in the dark, we're fractions of a star Held above a story for a moment only I can't decide (decide), one needs building (building) And one needs digging (digging), and one needs filling in This love, this love is like a swarm We can't see through it, we can't hold thorns Tendons that we are, tendons stretched too far Tangled up and heavy, winding steady Tender in the dark, we're fractions of a star Held above a story for a moment only Until it breaks clean, until it takes me Until we hollow the thought Nothing this close can enjoy permanence I think I understand, the past is circling Nothing that's lit can be in flames this long ♪ You said, you said I had all the fighting, maybe Maybe it's something, maybe it's real Not faded like flowers from yesterday's field Aimless on a fated road This life, it keeps us hunting 'Cause I'm not home Throw my bones, empty me Held so tight, it's all I see Let your grief pour into me Tell me now, is this what you wanted? (Is this what you wanted?) Let yourself pour into me Tendons that we are, tendons stretched too far
