My Shell Is Broken Lyrics by The Ghost and the Grace

Behold! A Pale Horse

2009

I know a girl, wrote her name in the sand and we watched it wash away
The tide went out and then we did it again but the same thing just happened, and I said
You go take a rest dear, and go warm up inside, the storm is coming inland but I want you to be fine
And I will stand and write here, a tree branch is my pen, and I will write your name until the waves can't erase it, I promise
My shell is broken, yeah it's true
But I will always listen to you
I know a girl who was made up of notes but I couldn't play the song
You slowed it down and now I figured it out it was simple all along, 'cause you just
Need to pay attention to all the changing keys, and realize the major and the minor can't compete
And if I get upended, and if I lose my way, you can be my conductor and remind me what to play and I'll say
My shell is broken, yeah it's true
But I will always listen to you
