We Come Apart

Sonya Kitchell

[Verse 1]
I fell to the earth, a shattering
Its axis like these bones
And all throughout the clattering
The mayhem brought it home

For all begins and all ends
In a chaotic kind of storm
And the humming and drumming from down below
Say "Child, make sure you're warm"

[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, the humming and drumming from down below
Say "Child, make sure you're warm"

[Verse 2]
And I felt a wicked heathen's breath
Coming from a smile
And I felt the truest tenderness
Below, deep as a mile

Hand in hand and heart in heart
I saw that they did roam
Separate, we are two parts
That never come alone

[Pre-Chorus]
Separate, we are two parts
That never come alone

[Chorus]
And we come apart
We come apart
We come apart
We come apart

[Verse 3]
And I lay in a moonlit field
And I let my burdens go
Let the arms of grass reach up around
And wrap around me so

And I surrendered in the light
For I was all alone
No eyes to judge, no thoughts to lessen
That which is my own

[Pre-Chorus]
No eyes to judge, no thoughts to take
That which is my own

[Chorus]
And we come apart
We come apart
We come apart
We come apart

[Verse 4]
And I said a prayer before I slept
Love would find me here
I sent it out into the night
And I watched it disappear

For wings of dreams have funny ways
Of flying round and round
Round and round and round your head
Till you set them down

[Pre-Chorus]
Round and round and round your head
Till you set them down

[Chorus]
And we come apart
We come apart
We come apart
We come apart

We come apart
We come apart
Oh, we come apart
We come apart
