Lungs by Zoply

Music Lyrics

I'm counting the dust motes in the light

Collecting the pieces of the night

My skin is a map of where I've been

Trying to keep the outside in

 

The walls are humming a minor key

 

Asking what's left of the rest of me

 

And my lungs are made of need

Carrying words I never said

Sinking down through the kitchen floor

I don't remember the exit door

 

Stop

Don't

Move

 

The silence is louder than the scream

I'm waking up inside a dream

There's a silver wire beneath my tongue

Songs that were old when I was young

 

I'm a hollow shell

I'm a shallow grave

I'm the only secret I couldn't save

 

Do you feel the weight

Does it make you shake

How much pressure

Does a diamond take

 

And my lungs are made of need

Carrying words I never said

Sinking down through the kitchen floor

I don't remember the exit door

 

Do you feel the weight
