Deep In The Earth – Maggie RogersBy Excuse me for a minute‘Cause this won’t be briefI’ve been hiding these wordsUnder my tongue, protectedBy the walls of my yellow-stained teethThey’ve festered and brokenAnd they’ve rearrangedThey’ve misspelled themselvesAnd now they’re leaking out of myBrainThey say ashes to ashesAnd dust to dustBut my heart’s made of metalAnd the clasp’s rusted shut‘Cause you left it out in theRainBut if these are the last breathsI’m breathing on earthThen I pray to GodYou remember me whenMy body is deep in the earth(Whoa, Whoa)My back’s ached for yearsCarrying my heavy heartIt beats itself sillyAnd pounds through the darkSustaining the life that lives withinAnd yet was so desperateTo beat in timeIt rang in your rhythmAnd mimicked yourRhymeYou can’t blame it for tryingOr clinging to loveBut love’s left my soulAnd I’ve forgotten loveAnd what’s left is your smoky silhouetteBut if these are the last breathsI’m breathing on earthThen I pray to GodYou remember meWhen my body is deep in the earth www.pillowlyrics.com419786497975 88k 20
