Dust - Idle/Ida Wenøe/Leith Ross

Composed by：Ida Wenøe/Leith Ross

I remember finding out

That fairytales were whittled down

Monsters live in a college dorms

Suits and sweats and best friends mouths

I remember skipping rocks

Listening to top 40 pop

A quiz inside a magazine

Told me I should loosen up

Skin and bones

Ash to ash to dust

Everything and at once

Not much

Crayon outlines of my friends

DIY and dying plants

If lonely trees don't make a

Sound what if I'm never seen

Again

Winter brings a chrysalis

But transformations not so quick

Shedding for a change and

Ending up the way I've always been

Skin and bones

Ash to ash to dust

Everything and at once

Not much

Fish following the river

Birds leaving for the winter

Maybe one day when I'm old

I'll tell the things that I've been

Told to teenagers who write me off

And think they know the things I know

Or maybe I'll still be the same

Or maybe I'll have learned to change

Read the brothers Grimm to my children's kids

And

Start it all again
