bryyn - thin

An old bell lost in the sound
Ringing out loud
It can't stop 
You can't stop
We can't stop
What we are

What I want 
Is what I need
Is upside down
Head in the holes 
In the ground

Can you see 
We are trying
And you're so close 
But far from my heart

Thin as a blanket on the grass
You gotta take it take it
Thin as a picture on the wall
Quilted together

I don't want to wake up 
with thorns in my eyes
Twist and turning 
the memories inside

These bones
These bones
These bones
These bones
Are gonna go down

I know 
I know
I know
I know 
its gonna get easier

Thin as a blanket on the grass
You gotta take it take it
Thin as a picture on the wall
Quilted together

The grass is withering
And flowers fading
My seeing leaving
Mirrors dimming
My inmost being
Quilted together
Then I will know
And be known

Thin as a blanket on the grass
(the grass is withering)
You gotta take it take it
Thin as a picture on the wall
Quilted together

Thin as a blanket on the grass
(my inmost being quilted together)
You gotta take it take it
Thin as a picture on the wall
Quilted together

1 Corinthians 13:12
For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

Psalm 139:13
You alone created my inner being. You knitted me together inside my mother.

Isaiah 40:8
The grass withers, the flower fades: but the word of our God stands forever.
