viscus

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Oklou] A few steps in the backyard With one foot at a time Only rays of sunshine can be catching me off guard The turning in my mind Travels to my viscus with the stories before mine (Ooh) [Pre-Chorus: Oklou] All the homes that I've known Are made to be falling apart Are the sheds and castles Created to be made from the start? [Chorus: Oklou] I get lost so deep inside me In the start or in the ending Last is my beginning Full of life, but I'm starving Over hills, overcrowding I guess I thought the sunshinе would Be enough or something Mm-mm-mm [Post-Chorus: Oklou] Oh Ooh, ooh, ooh (Mm-mm-mm) [Verse 2: Oklou] Thе body is a temple Am I worshipping too hard? (Oh) Praying with my eyes shut keeps me away from the lights But sometimes, I'm so fragile (Oh) As if someone else's faith feels not like home at all? (Pa-pa-ra-ra-ra) [Pre-Chorus: Oklou & FKA twigs] All the signs that I know (Pa-pa-ra-ra-ra) Are starting to tear me apart (Pa-pa-ra-ra-ra) It'd be nice to grow old (Pa-pa-ra-ra-ra) Without being under attack All this fear that I hold Is building up layers of time Can I just scream it all Instead of it choking up my lungs? (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Instead of it choking up my lungs? [Bridge: FKA twigs] Avoiding myself naked in the bath Just to touch my body in the dark I wanna find a place I feel alive The beating of my heart Is sure a place to start Instead of me choking up and running [Chorus: Oklou & FKA twigs] I get lost so deep inside me In the start or in the ending (Avoiding myself naked in the bath) Last is my beginning Full of life, but I'm starving Over hills, overcrowding (Avoiding myself naked in the bath) Guess I thought the sunshine would Be enough or something (Body in the—) Instead of it choking up my lungs? (Pa-pa-ra-ra-ra) [Outro: FKA twigs & Oklou] Instead of me choking up and running There's so much wind (Pa-pa-ra-ra-ra, oh) Oh-oh
