sinew

Rest like you belong here

With your damp hair, with your chest heaving

Soar out over the long land

With your cold hands to watch the plains receding

Waves up off of the pavement

Will carry you in, it's like your sweat is cleaning

You swallowed the sinew

My body passed through before I began breathing

When the night falls and the light dawns

Off each other's bodies, now you see

When the land falls and the tide crawls

Off each other's bodies, you're in me

Off each other's bodies

Drawn out like the Laurentian's

Out through the window, color the grace in our age

Peer down into the craters

Under the lost lakes where clarity is buried

Waves up off of the pavement

Will carry you in, it's like your sweat is cleaning

You swallowed the sinew

My body passed through before I began breathing

When the night falls and the light dawns

Off each other's bodies, now you see

When the land falls and the tide crawls

Off each other's bodies, you're in me

Off each other's bodies

Now you see how you're in me, in me

Now you see how you're in me, in me

Waves up off of the pavement

Will carry you in, it's like your sweat is cleaning

You swallowed the sinew

My body passed through before I began breathing
