Lyrics Physical World - Drowse

Physical World

Growing, shrinking
I don’t take care of it
‘cause it’s «what's inside that counts»
And I’m scared of it--
The way it binds me to the «physical world»
How it reminds me:
Life’s a leaf in October
But there’s no «physical world"--
There’s «no inside or out»
Air flows through the mouth
And into the blood
I wanted to see
In the third grade:
Tiny
Medieval sword--
From my grandfather in Spain--
Into my stomach
Without pain
Or discovery
Through screams she found me
So no insides came out
I wake alone at night
To my anxious heart
Running wild in my chest
A reminder
That I have a body
So it thumps harder:
(Panic attack.)
