viscus

[Verse 1: Oklou]
A few steps in the backyard
With one foot at a time
Only rays of sunshine can be catching me off guard
The turning in my mind
Travels to my viscus with the stories before mine (Ooh)

[Pre-Chorus: Oklou]
All the homes that I've known
Are made to be falling apart
Are the sheds and castles
Created to be made from the start?

[Chorus: Oklou]
I get lost so deep inside me
In the start or in the ending
Last is my beginning
Full of life, but I'm starving
Over hills, overcrowding
I guess I thought the sunshine would
Be enough or something
Mm-mm-mm

[Post-Chorus: Oklou]
Oh
Ooh, ooh, ooh (Mm-mm-mm)

[Verse 2: Oklou]
The body is a temple
Am I worshipping too hard? (Oh)
Praying with my eyes shut keeps me away from the lights
But sometimes, I'm so fragile (Oh)
As if someone else's faith feels not like home at all? (Pa-pa-ra-ra-ra)

[Pre-Chorus: Oklou & FKA twigs]
All the signs that I know (Pa-pa-ra-ra-ra)
Are starting to tear me apart (Pa-pa-ra-ra-ra)
It'd be nice to grow old (Pa-pa-ra-ra-ra)
Without being under attack
All this fear that I hold
Is building up layers of time
Can I just scream it all
Instead of it choking up my lungs?
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Instead of it choking up my lungs?

[Bridge: FKA twigs]
Avoiding myself naked in the bath
Just to touch my body in the dark
I wanna find a place I feel alive
The beating of my heart
Is sure a place to start
Instead of me choking up and running

[Chorus: Oklou & FKA twigs]
I get lost so deep inside me
In the start or in the ending (Avoiding myself naked in the bath)
Last is my beginning
Full of life, but I'm starving
Over hills, overcrowding (Avoiding myself naked in the bath)
Guess I thought the sunshine would
Be enough or something (Body in the—)
Instead of it choking up my lungs? (Pa-pa-ra-ra-ra)

[Outro: FKA twigs & Oklou]
Instead of me choking up and running
There's so much wind (Pa-pa-ra-ra-ra, oh)
Oh-oh
