deep in the earth - maggie rogers lyrics
[verse 1]
excuse me for a minute
’cause this won’t be brief
i’ve been hiding these words
under my tongue, protected
by the walls of my yellow-stained teeth
[verse 2]
they’ve festered and broken
and they’ve rearranged
they’ve misspelled themselves
and now they’re leaking out of my brain
[verse 3]
they say ashes to ashes
and dust to dust
but my heart’s made of metal
and the clasp’s rusted shut
’cause you left it out in the rain
[chorus 1]
and if these are the last breaths
i’m breathing on earth
then i pray to god
you remember me when
my body is deep in the earth
[verse 4]
my back’s ached for years
carrying my heavy heart
it beats itself silly
and pounds through the dark
sustaining a life that lives within
[verse 5]
and yet was so desperate
to beat in time
it rang in your rhythm
and mimicked your rhyme
[verse 6]
you can’t blame it for trying
or clinging to love
but love’s left my soul
and i’ve forgotten love
and what’s left is your smoky silhouette
[chorus 2]
but if these are the last breaths
i’m breathing on earth
then i pray to god
you remember me
when my body is deep in the earth
[chorus 3]
these are the last breaths
i’m breathing on earth
then i pray to god
you remember me
when my body is deep in the earth
