Rind by The Weather Station Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It is lodged under my bed
I can't sleep for it cracking away
The dark rind of the world, peeled open, peeled away
[Verse 2]
Oh, I hear it all night, its silence, its absence
The space where you had just been
And we had known we were kin
[Chorus]
I'm so tired, I'm so tired of it
I wanna sleep, but it tells me that its near my feet
In its teeth, that it's near that its waiting
[Outro]
The wind took the words from my mouth
I just lay there and let it
The world ground on, sweet tongued
While I watched from my moon, my bedroom
It is lodged under my bed
I can't sleep for it cracking away
The dark rind of the world, peeled open, peeled away
[Verse 2]
Oh, I hear it all night, its silence, its absence
The space where you had just been
And we had known we were kin
[Chorus]
I'm so tired, I'm so tired of it
I wanna sleep, but it tells me that its near my feet
In its teeth, that it's near that its waiting
[Outro]
The wind took the words from my mouth
I just lay there and let it
The world ground on, sweet tongued
While I watched from my moon, my bedroom
