We Were Hiding Lyrics by Boreal Sons

Threadbare

2013

We were hiding long before we knew it
And locked ourselves inside
Boxes bound in ribbon all of velvet
Tombs all washed in white
What can put to rest the weightless humming of the old ghosts in our ears?
We were hiding long before we knew it
And locked ourselves inside
Boxes bound in ribbon all of velvet
Tombs all washed in white
Have you felt that quiet question burrowing beneath your skin?
Here we tore ourselves out by the root
Never learned to water into bloom
My feet carried me away too soon
Never learned to water into bloom
I try to keep what’s easiest to lose
Never learned to water into bloom
Like a heart my face was beating red
And like a face the heart can just pretend
Have you felt that quiet question burrowing beneath your skin?
What can put to rest the weightless humming of the old ghosts I let in?
I knew I was hollow, I was poor
I knew I was free, I was yours
