"My Body" lyrics

"My Body"

As the doors of the hospital spun
I remember the smell of the sun
As it beat down on midsummer streets
I did not know what was waiting for me
I took off all of my shoes
As I walked slowly home

Everyone looked so normal to me
Humming the hymns of a moving city
Did anyone spot me falling apart?
If not the end then the end of the start
Throwing my cards to the skies
And seeing what will fall down

It's like I'm not quite me anymore
I don't know what that means anymore
I don't know what that means
A body born to break
A body born to break
A body born to break
My body

They all told me my life would now change
Bodies they work in mysterious ways
Nodded my head so they felt they were heard
Yes, I'm a wall but I'm also a bird
A little part of me flew
Somewhere miles out of there

It's like I'm not quite me anymore
I don't know what that means anymore
I don't know what that means
A body born to break
A body born to break
A body born to break
My body

Life picked a fight and I chose my side
Evening will fret and the morning will sigh
Gather our hopes that have got us this far
Everything tumbles except who you are
I took all of my shoes
As I walked slowly home
