lyrics

The rivers running in the earth
resemble the veins in our arms.
Swayed the same way.
The body knows.

Twisted branches in the light
reaching out like the mind,
taking the shape of stars.
The body knows

and longs to be stone:
still and quiet and on the ground;
released from the rush of town.
Lay me down in an easy bed
that my body knows.

The lovers running in the night
trying to forget their names
so they can recall
what the body knows

and the science showed
what the saints behold:
that secret oath
that the body knows.

I long to be stone:
still and quiet and on the ground,
released from the rush of town.
Lay me down in an easy bed
that my body knows.

'Cause the body knows
what the science showed
and what the saints behold:
that secret oath that the body knows.
