Muscle & Bone Lyrics

If I sing right here
only waves and fireflies to hear
will it
bring me back?

I am lighter than mist
helium in a red balloon
in a toddler's fist
lighter than empty words.

Stop signs and grocery lines, I'm waiting
I'm waiting to feel home
Bedtimes and simple rhymes, I'm sated
Just to be muscle and bone.

If I lie around
only birds in the absence of sound
will it
bring me back?

I am heavy spring rain
Earthbound, but I hit the ground and
evaporate
smells like life again.

Stop signs and grocery lines, I'm waiting
I'm waiting to feel home
Bedtimes and simple rhymes, I'm sated
Just to be muscle and bone.

If I sing right here
only waves and fireflies to hear
will it
bring me back?
