Save My Soul

(album: Currents - 2013)

Vibrant, in a dress, wearing dance shoes
All in all, I was a bright young girl with a sound
I met you on the train tracks, the beams that held up
My spine now it's up to me to find the photo
I had of her when I was five years old
and my hair was beautifully white

Sifting down, pushed through squares,
the tiny cracks, but no one cares

You, hey you there, can you save my soul
I caught your eye and with it you let me know,
You won't bury me, you're the part that makes me whole
You, hey you there, will you save my soul

Now, I'm here and I'm not backing down
I'm here, you're here and we're not backing down
We wait and we breathe and I'll start singing
'Two Headed Boy' as you fall asleep, as you fall asleep

You, hey you there, can you save my soul
I caught your eye and with it you let me know,
You won't bury me, you're the part that makes me whole
You, hey you there, can you save my soul

Swinging from the background
Swelling from beneath
What was in the darkness, blooming under me
Rising from the ashes
Waking all the dead
Tearing through the sadness ringing through my head [x2]

You, hey you there, can you save my soul
I caught your eye and with it you let me know,
You won't bury me, you're the part that makes me whole
You, hey you there, can you save my soul
