lyrics

Fading from the window like the warmth of your palm
Something in the way you spin it makes it feel less wrong
Just a halo of hair broken round my head
Dye your hair watch yourself growing like she said
Raining pouring how can I ignore
clouds that gave me teeth biting down hard
We'll walk like aliens to intimacy
I'll become alien to you to feel free

Is this my body
Standing here by my side

I feel it most in the morning
An other-worldly sentience
tactile focus, all my sense
and I'm still thinking of that animal
a mouth, a neck, a mayhem running down
a matrimony, a mother
her violent swoon

Is this my body
Standing here by my side
