Son Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Show me who I am and who I could be
Initiate the heart within me
Until it opens properly
Slow down, start again from the beginning
I can't keep my head from spinning out of control
Is this what being vulnerable feels like?

[Chorus]
And I will try, try, try, to breathe
Until it turns to muscle memory
I'm only steady on my knees
One day I'll stand on my own two feet
I'll run the risk of being intimate with brokenness
Through this magnifying glass I see
A thousand fingerprints
On the surfaces of who I am

[Verse 2]
Show me, where to find the silver lining
As the mercury keeps rising
'Til the glass or my fever breaks
Show me, how to struggle gracefully
Is the scaffolding inside of me be strong enough
To hold this tired body up once more

[Pre-Chorus]
And I will try, try, try, to breathe
Until it turns to muscle memory
I feel the pressure in my blood
Building up and liberating me

[Chorus]
So I will try, try, try, to breathe
Until it turns to muscle memory
I'm only steady on my knees
One day I'll stand on my own two feet
And I'll run the risk of being intimate with brokenness
Through this magnifying glass I see
A thousand fingerprints

[Verse 3]
I ran the risk of being intimate with my brokenness
I was given a gift of hope and a thousand fingerprints
On the surface of who I am

What did Sleeping At Last say about "Son"?

Once I realized this song needed to be about my story of figuring out who I am, I thought it’d be a fairly simple song to write. No research needed to tell that story, I thought. Of course, I was wrong. As it turns out, I haven’t really spent a lot of conscious time asking myself that question: Who...
