lyrics

V1
I don't know why
the light's so bright it hurts my eyes
is that my voice? It's a surprise...to me.

MomDad, is that you?

I've never seen your face like this before

I seemed fine just where I was
the ocean never broke

Refrain
coming out the womb with fury
get me back there what's the hurry?
Then again...

I've never heard such words so sweetly

Chorus
spoke, now, is this how
life really begins
with me cutting off the cord with which you fed me from within
I guess oxygen tastes like this
like broken water with a kiss

I never thought it'd be like this
it shakes me to my core
And I've never seen your face like this before

V2
I don't know how
to live with this uncertain hunger
now up close, you seem much younger still

and I've never felt so close to you until

Tornado not a Hurricane
I was dreaming until you woke

Refrain
coming out the womb with fury
get me back there what's the hurry?
Then again...

I've never heard such words so sweetly spoke

Chorus 2x
