Laura Gibson - Spirited lyrics

Our bodies still as photographs Beg the ground to swallow us And press our lonesome silhouettes into the dirt Light reflecting off your face Casting colors on your cheeks I saw you shining, saw you shining Brighter than before Autumn bears a bitter song Creeping out across the yard And weaving through the alder branches overhead Of all that is escaping us I have never been so certain as today When the seasons settle in our lungs They'll harden us, they'll cover us in crows But cannot wash the laughter from our tongues Time is quick to carry on Certain as the morning tends to Hollow us and turn our words to smoke In all that is escaped us And all that we could hold in place I saw you shining Saw you shining Brighter than before
