Hollow Bones in the Sun (wersja 2)

Intro

(Hollow bones)

Verse

Salt in my hair where the ocean was born

Warm breeze through my collarbone

Every scar's been counted and stored

But your touch still brings me back to dawn

You move slow across this concrete floor

Fingers tracing lines I forgot were there

I'm a map of every summer before

But you fold me up like you're drawing new scars

Pre-Chorus

Can you see the outline where I used to be?

Or is it just your hand on my spine?

Chorus

You take the empty in between the ribs and fill them with gold

Hollow bones don't need a shape when they know exactly who holds

Every inch of me has been borrowed, every breath secondhand

But with you here I finally feel like this is mine at last

Verse 2

Barefoot in the sand where our shadows used to fall

Every wave that breaks washes something out of my skull

Your eyes catch mine when the sun sets over all

And for a moment, none of it ever happened at all

You spin me slow around your hip where the light goes thin

I've been running from this shape my whole life, but now I give in

I used to be a ghost with nothing left inside

But you're the kind of person who brings the living back alive

Pre-Chorus

Can you see the outline where I used to be?

Or is it just your hand on my spine?

Chorus

You take the empty in between the ribs and fill them with gold

Hollow bones don't need a shape when they know exactly who holds

Every inch of me has been borrowed, every breath secondhand

But with you here I finally feel like this is mine at last

Bridge

I don't need a frame to hold what we have found

My ribcage isn't empty now, it's open air around your sound

This isn't healing, this is being whole for the first time

And if you keep holding me like this, I think I'll learn to stay

Chorus

You take the empty in between the ribs and fill them with gold

Hollow bones don't need a shape when they know exactly who holds

Every inch of me has been borrowed, every breath secondhand

But with you here I finally feel like this is mine at last
