lyrics
Listen up
I get the concept
But it's not enough
I have a body I am
Flesh and blood
My whole thing is sorta
Taste and touch
Where's the comfort
I need eyes, toes
(Don't you know?)
Skin that shivers
From hot coals
(Some of those)
Frozen rivers
If that's true
It works for me if it
Works for you
Given everything that
You've been through
Each disappointment, every
Open wound
There's a few
Filled with windows
(Up the road)
Under arches
Built for rainbows
(Won't You go?)
In the darkness
Where's the rest?
No explanation or
Return address
A patch of sunlight on a
Rocky ledge
In combination with a
Crystal wedge
The question it begs
Touches without trust
(Don't you know)
Is just an unforgiving surface
I get the concept
But it's not enough
I have a body I am
Flesh and blood
My whole thing is sorta
Taste and touch
Where's the comfort
I need eyes, toes
(Don't you know?)
Skin that shivers
From hot coals
(Some of those)
Frozen rivers
If that's true
It works for me if it
Works for you
Given everything that
You've been through
Each disappointment, every
Open wound
There's a few
Filled with windows
(Up the road)
Under arches
Built for rainbows
(Won't You go?)
In the darkness
Where's the rest?
No explanation or
Return address
A patch of sunlight on a
Rocky ledge
In combination with a
Crystal wedge
The question it begs
Touches without trust
(Don't you know)
Is just an unforgiving surface
