Tardigrade — Tun

Lyrics

[Intro]
(breath) … pour it out … (breath)

[Verse 1]
Pour the water out of me
lay me down as dust and glass
let the sun go cold and pass
I have done this before

[Chorus]
Wake me when it's over
wake me when it's safe
I am not dead, I'm waiting
I am the long way home

[Verse 2]
Shoot your rays right through my bones
there's a shield around the code
I came back from the void alone
I have done this before

[Chorus]
Wake me when it's over
wake me when it's safe
I am not dead, I'm waiting
I am the long way home

[Bridge]
Nothing breathing, nothing beating
just the patience and the cold
a thousand years of keeping
what the living cannot hold

[Outro]
(whisper) … again … and again … and again …
