Tiny Kingdoms - Withered lyrics

[Verse 1] We rise from the floorboards and convey each sound We stretched our limbs after a thousand years of sleeping underground Silent and steadfast, you miss being buried And now every time we're together you're so much more lonely And it consumes me And it consumes me And it consumes me And it consumes me And it consumes me And it consumes me [Chorus] In our efforts to save ourselves we nearly drowned And we held out every time we were being dragged down I should know better than to call you mine But each vein was weathered, subjecting us to the tide [Verse 2] Who have we been? Who have we been? Who have we been? Who have we been? We thought we planted our roots so deep But we've withered so much since then Who have we been? Who have we been? Who have we been? Who have we been? A beautiful place turned to an empty space And now we have to give in [Chorus] In our efforts to save ourselves we nearly drowned And we held out every time we were being dragged down I should know better than to call you mine But each vein was weathered, subjecting us to the tide
