lyrics

i have this bark in my chest
im a tree by contrast
with every question you have ever asked
i'm whittled away

i have this bark in my chest
im a tree by contrast
with wide limbs that reach out
ready to be cut down

a time has come for everything
id hoped that you would still like me for all that you can see
slimmer and smaller in shape
less intrusive on your landscapes

i have this spark in my chest
from where the flint in your bones met your necklace's clasp
there was a locket in your inheritance
i wonder what that you keep inside of it

i have this spark in my chest
from where the flint in your bones met your necklace's clasp
you were never one for sentiment
i still scrawl dates in drying cement

a time has come for everything
id hoped that you would still like me for all that you can see
slimmer and smaller in shape
less intrusive on your landscapes

i can disappear
all that you have to do is say the word
