Matthew and the Atlas - Glacier lyrics

Glacier, we’re just shapes that spring
From the fountain woven to the back of you
Whispering I can see you through

You became the rope
Pulling them back from the water
It’s not, the fault of child or mother
You became the hope
Palace they built around you
It’s not, the fault of one or the other
Glacier, we’re just bodies
Moving through centuries without provenance
No no no consequence

You became the rope
Pulling them back from the water
It’s not, the fault of child or mother
You became the hope
Palace they built around you
It’s not, the fault of one or the other

We’re just bodies that move
Through the evening
And we all drink from the cup
We’re just shapes that spring
From the fountain
And it’s alright to give up
Yeah it’s alright to give up
Yeah it’s alright to give up
Yeah it’s alright to give up
Yeah it’s alright, it’s alright
