I'm Born from Myself Again

You shrink yourself into your notebook
And leave nothing behind, but some confused metaphor
Stained with coffee, and gritted with sand
I'll find you struck by song
And dissolve to sing with you

My body is this chord
I wish it were the other one
Cause it feels too cold
To keep you warm

If you don't love me
I'll leave you alone
If you don't want me
Then I'll go home
I live in the first verse
Setting the scene
You pace round the second
Plotting a route to get to the ending

Or we could stay here, over and over
I'll lay next to you in the coda

I wrapped myself in light
So I could draw shapes in the shadows
Of your face
When I showed you the mirror
You saw the hand covering your eyes
I wrapped myself in ivy
And it dragged me into the dirt
And made a home of my body
I'm born from myself again
Go back, go back, go back

When this is over
We'll fade out
I'm wide open
Dancing for you
On the remains of a crash
