lyrics

Who I've Been
V, Appleton

Scratch on the surface
I sputter and stall
Shocked as my gears disengage
I’ve bet all my money
But the tables have turned
As the cards I’ve been dealt re-arrange

Just ‘neath the skin line
There’s soul in these veins
Surprised that I’m still flesh and bones
She’ll lead me to battle
She’ll push me to war
Armed only with sticks and with stones

I’ve sown all my stories
I’ve shed my old skin
Over and over and over and
Now I’ll try once again to rely on my love to begin
To know who I’ve been

Down in the basement
Delilah awaits
Blades sharp, ready to strike
I wake in the morning
Grab hold of my love
Just grateful to still be alive

Up in the attic
The winds blow and stir up
The dust that has settled like night
Outside my window
The trees are a blur
Of motion and promise and life

Too late in the game to move backwards
Too soon to throw in my hand
Too many coins on the table
Too much I don’t understand
