Testi

[Verse 1]
There’s a creek I would walk to
When my house felt like a locked room
Lean on little wooden bridges
Watch the eels playing cool
I could walk a little further
Down the dirt path on the shoulder
To the biggest waterfall my city limits could produce
[PreChorus]
Boy, it fell
Kept on falling
Biting down, carving rock, slow erosion
[Chorus]
Lay me here on the stone
I’m only here to feed mosquitoes
Only skin, only blood
A little less now than there was
[Verse 2]
In January '23
The creek became a raging sea
A great torrential flood that ripped
The bridges from the banks
The soft slope of the valley
Ravaged, cracked and wounded badly
Fallen giants breathing heavily
Across the severed track
[PreChorus]
They fell
Stayed fallen
Roots exposed, reaching high
Something’s growing
[Chorus]
Lay me here, by the bones
I’m only here to feed mosquitoes
Only skin, only blood
A little less now than there was
A little less now than there was
[Bridge]
I still go, it’s been a year now
Past the chain link fence that keeps out
With the bridges all still blown out
You can’t amble anymore
Overgrown, abandoned
I take off my shoes to cross and
Find the current has forgotten
How it felt to break the world
[PreChorus]
And if I fall
I’ll fall in
Soaking wet, ruined pride, Tui laughing
[Chorus]
So leave me here, let me go
I’m only here to feed mosquitoes
Only skin, only blood
A little less now than there was just
Leave me here, on my own
I only breathe to feed the ego
Only flesh, only blood
I’m letting go of what I’m not
A little less now than there was
A little less now than there was
