Mary Lambert - I Am the Ascent lyrics

This is where I hurl myself to
A pack of snarling dogs
Where my fingers unfurl and
Claim to call themselves
More than mere skin on metal car poles
If I feel your hands slide by my side again
I think I might scream from being wanted

This is where I scream

This is where all of my poems live
And other beautiful body parts that
I asked to borrow right here
Underneath your 4 finger and thumb
I am pinned to this idea of you
And I don't know when my
Lips stumble onto yours
But this is when PBR starts to
Taste like a decent beer
And when crashing my body
Into yours sounds like
The greatest fucking idea I've ever had
This is where my hands
Stop calling themselves accidents
At this point I'm very much
Holding your nakedness on purpose

I got to see the sun rise this
Morning over a long stretch of I5
From the roof of my mouth to
The crevasses behind my teeth
I am tingling so electric
This is where I become the sunrise
Slow, shock blue, and disgustingly beautiful
Watch my ascent
