"Bone Collector" lyrics

"Bone Collector"

Shed your armor on the forest floor
I'll make our own for how much you ignore
Fertile ground
Harmonious choir
My body an altar adorned in detritus
The light shines where you used to be

Ever so softly, watching your dust turn into jewelry
Hold on to me

I'll keep what's left
And wear your memory on my chest
An ancient one, even older than the land
Life and death, hand in hand
I'll keep what's left

Every hollow I crawl inside
Feels like a temple where something died
I'm spinning silk every night and day
Transforming all of the decay
I bloom beneath your fading glow
From everything you let go
A detrivore with diamond teeth
A perfect friend for my enemy
Strike a balance, the light shines where you used to be

Ever so softly, watching your dust turn into poetry
It's your story

I'll keep what's left
And wear your memory on my chest
An ancient one, even older than the land
Life and death, hand in hand
I'll keep what's left (I'll keep what's left)
Life and death, hand in hand
