Lyrics
Taken less for-granted, you?re a knot that?s worth untying
You are featureless but flying
You are whole among the pieces
You are one
Your innocence is winking like a planet out of reach
A mother sleeping on the beach
Dreaming like she knows you?re distant
But not done
(chorus)You?re not alone
Sometimes I don?t believe it either
But it?s been shown
That it?s the hurt that makes the healer feel like home
Slipping through his fingers now the colors of the crush
All the chords that hurt too much
Breath and bile and blood and urine
To the bone
Skeletal, so helpless, hide yourself now if you can
Fled like children, every man,
And this is not the priest you pictured
Here alone
Chorus
Change the channel now, and hold this handle
We will flow into commercial, babe,
These dryer sheets will drive you crazy now
There are crosses in the corners of the eyes that turn to face you
A texture to the tongue that tastes you
Gentle, painful, so persistent,
You are known
Flying back, but slowly, there?s an ardor to your armor
Holy rain you thought you?d die for
Through the cracks I see the hope of afterglow
