Laura Gibson – Spirited lyrics
Album: Beasts Of Seasons
Our bodies still as photographs
We'll beg the ground to swallow us
To press our lonesome silhouettes into the dirt
The 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
All of 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
As certain as the morning tends
To hollow us and turn our words to smoke
In all that was escaping us
And all that we could hold in place
I saw you shining, saw you shining brighter than before
