A Lot Like Birds - From Moon to Son lyrics

We came together with the waves Connected, collapsing with our fur undressed We were gods of moments Fascinating, timeless, unafraid Basking in the brilliance of the sun But just as suns rise, so do suns set We put our own into the ground, let the lights run out I hope that you’re out there with somewhere you can go None of us deserve this, only dogs should bury bones Laid to rest, nothing is left I hope you’re eternal, but all I have is hope In the wake of it we were drunk on blood from our paws Made me sick to my core, it ripped at my heart til the color drained into the ground I took grief to my bed and put her hands to my eyes Felt the chill of her touch and slept in her arms, felt the seasons pa**, slip right by us I took blame – I took time – I took off All I want is a sign that you’re okay I hope that you’re out there with somewhere you can go None of us deserve this, only dogs should bury bones Laid to rest, nothing is left I hope you’re eternal, but all I have is hope We drank from lakes that we had made Creators, unraveled with our skin left bare We had seen our image Silhouetted, cast among the stars Now we fumbled blindly through the dirt We parted nothing where we walked Affected so little when we held our breath We were wolves in cheap skin Salivating, harmless and alone Howling at a memory of the moon
