My Body - Tom Rosenthal

Lyrics by：Tom Rosenthal

Composed by：Tom Rosenthal

As the doors of the hospital spun

I remember the smell of the sun

As it beat down on midsummer streets

I did not know what was waiting for me

I took off all of my shoes

As I walked slowly home

Everyone looked so normal to me

Humming the hymns of a moving city

Did anybody spot me falling apart

If not the end then the end of the start

Throwing my cards to the skies

And seeing what will fall down

It's like I'm not quite me anymore

I don't know what that means anymore

I don't know what that means

A body born to break

A body born to break

A body born to break

My body

They all told me my life would now change

Bodies they work in mysterious ways

Nodded my head so they felt they were heard

Yes I'm a wall but I'm also a bird

A little part of me flew

Somewhere miles out of there

It's like I'm not quite me anymore

I don't know what that means anymore

I don't know what that means

A body born to break

A body born to break

A body born to break

My body

Life picked a fight and I chose my side

Evening will fret and the morning will sigh

Gather our hopes that have got us this far

Everything tumbles except who you are

I took off all of my shoes

As I walked slowly home
