Lyrics Ribs - Corpus

Ribs

Terrified of open eyes
I wish myself apart
Anyway
The distance aint that hard
It dampens something new
Predation, I’m engorged
Anyway
A world of second guesses
I’m a mess, I get it
I pay my debts and pass by
Terrified you won’t come down
What if we stay like this, stay like this
Motionless
I feel you burn against my palm
I’m calm
Hold onto cold lent,
Grasp at my strings end,
Lucidly,
Watch me unravel,
As I pace sombrely,
Stay for me,
Soft air of your calm,
Deep hues of your rage,
Predatory,
Streaming with old pain,
Confidently porous,
Let me fall in love.
On a silver road there’s nothing underneath
Pull over, I’ll let you feel me
I want that too
I’m horrified of failing
Not meek enough to mind
Don’t mind it’s so misleading
I’m leading, I don’t mind
I can see my ribs
It’s nothing new
There never was much of me
So kiss my weak, embrace my fragile
My fragile shell, my flesh and bone
Terrified you won’t come down
What if we stay like this, stay
like this
Motionless
I feel you burn against my palm
I’m calm
