The Joy Formidable - Tendons lyrics

[The Joy Formidable - Tendons lyrics]

Careful of the morning careful of the night
Careful of them hunting
The ideas we leave behind
Those preachers and their stories
Drunkards and their vows
We clung to each other
When there was no one else around

Tendons that we are
Tendons stretched too far
Tangled up and heavy winding steady
Tender in the dark we're fractions of a star
Held above a story for a moment only
I can't decide what needs building
What needs digging what needs filling in
This love, this love is like a swarm
We can't see through it we can't hold thorns

Tendons that we are
Tendons stretched too far
Tangled up and heavy winding steady


Tender in the dark we're fractions of a star
Held above a story for a moment only

Until it breaks clean until it takes me
Until we hollow the thought

Nothing this close can enjoy permanence
I think I understand that past is circling

Nothing that's lit can be in flames this long

You said, you said I had all the fighting
Maybe

Maybe it's something maybe it's real
Not faded like flowers
Form yesterday's field
Aimless on a fated road
This life it keeps us hunting
Cos I'm not home

Throw my bones empty me
Held so tight that's all I see
Let your grief pour into me
Tell me now, is this what you wanted?

Is this what you wanted?
Let yourself pour into me

Tendons that we are
Tendons stretched too far
