This Could Be the One

I know I’m a troubled man
but I’m learning how to walk and how to stand

avoiding the funerals
of all my futures and my pasts

why won’t you discover me
I’m singing you a song can you hear me

hollow grave
you know my name
you call for me
you offer peace

shake the rust from me
I will go
though the skies are falling
I will sing

I hold the light in my teeth
I bite down hard
let it bleed into me

down to the river to see
if water on my snake skin
will make me clean

(and) I have been waiting for days
the water is gone
now we wait for rain

hollow grave
you know my name
you call for me

shake the rust from me
I will go
though the skies are falling
I will sing

my heart
a barren landscape
but my bones remember
rising from the dust

my hollow grave
I walk away

shake the rust from me
I will go
though the skies are falling
I will sing
