Graceless

[Verse 1]
Little white moths in the shape of my thoughts
If I move too fast I will lose them all
I got holes in the shapes of the places I dream of
Drilled in my spine so I always feel them

When did this happen, why this body?
Haven't thought about it since it happened to me
Holes in my spine like the curves of your name
But I can't read the letters I just know the shape of my

Thoughts their wings are a nervous tick
If I move too fast then they leave too quick
And I feel like something given too much
I try to process everything but my brain stops and

[Chorus]
Will I ever feel again
Like I know where I begin?
Self transparent from the change
Again

[Verse 2]
I've got something burned in the back of my mind
It's a name or a word or a couplet of rhyme
That tells me why I'm here and what I'm doing
But I can't read it it's always moving

The sky remembers what I've been
But if I stare it feels like a dream
Another mind, another life and body
Memories of dreams of flying, falling

And when they come into my mind
The old world burns in the glass of my eye
I get a surge of fields and trees and omens
A glimpse of home but I'm still broken

[Chorus]
Will I ever feel again
Like I know where I begin?
Self transparent from the pain
Again

[Bridge]
I can't stand you seeing me like this
This body feels like someone else's skin
Turn away and curl up in my mind
Dreaming of the days when I could fly

Graceless in this changing skin
The sky remembers what I've been
A different life so far away
That this body makes more distant every day

[Outro]
My thoughts stay longer every day
The old discomfort falls away
It hurts so much but you're still with me
I was so sure the knife would kill me

Vitriolic words echo in my mind
The disgust on their face burned into my eyes
But you were there, I don't know why you do this
If only you could feel it
