Lyrics

We thrive in the darkness
Where our parents would know us by other names
Grasping at hair
Leaping long into the air
Where are the tracks that we'd left
Were we meant to be found
Are you hiding somewhere
Silence is a deafening sound

Loss is an anthem in the air that follows you around
Keep trying to ignore the presence and the sound
There's a silence here and now
Gripping at the collar
Moving ever closer
Keeping us tethered to this open field
This was a holy place

Where are the tracks that we'd left
Where are the tracks that we'd left
Were we meant to be found
We were meant to be found
Was this meant to be found
This was meant to be found
We were meant to be found
We were meant to be

And so we called it home
We built it brick by brick
'Til we closed off everything without
Caged up all the things we wanted in
And it was safe
A four-letter word
Like fuck
Like love
Like hope
Is all the things
That can't, that won't
That cannot sink
That will not float
And so I called you home
Because you cannot
You will not
I called you hope
I called you hope
I called you

Now that you're all alone
You'll just be skin and bone
Now that you're all alone
You'll just be skin and bone
Now that you're all alone
You'll just be
