dogtooth & nail - broken table legs lyrics

Loading...

in the dark
in the rain
you can only make out the outline of my face

in holes
in caves
we dig out dens to try and keep ourselves safe

and these days i only cut deep when it’s
blending blood and ink

a graveyard’s growing in my ribcage so i’ll
visit it on sat-rdays
i’ll honor it and bring it flowers as the
seasons change
i can no longer swallow my words with a shot of
whiskey to chase it down
they keep scratching up my throat reminding me i promised
i wouldn’t let you drown

in the homes
we cultivate
and give our limbs to replace broken table legs

in the way
he says
“i don’t need for this sp-ce to be safe”

but you can move without worrying about wandering eyes
telling you to get back in line

embers float from the fire and we’ll
eat them in the air
tangled tales take time to unravel
and the smoke lingers in my hair
i have no breath left to speak with you
when your backs already turned
to build this up not tear us down
you’ve got to listen and learn

in the scars
our bodies save
we heal but the memories remain

and in my bones
i know we can
create something better than what we’ve been given
