Resonant Body

I'm a resonant body With knuckles and lungs Beat me with cymbals Play chords on my tongue I'm a resonant body With elbows and toes Drum on my rib cage Release my dissonant tones My dissonant tones My dissonant tones I'm a resonant body Trace it along my skin In the freckles and old scars And the lines I have hid In a resonant body All the frequencies hold like Dirty feet on carpet Your breath in the cold Your breath in the cold Warm breath in the cold I'm sorry for our miscommunications And force fed sympathies I'll rest in the garden With roots, oh and the reeds Safe from human frequencies Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh ooh Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh ooh Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh ooh I'm a resonant body With elbows and toes Drum on my rib cage Release my dissonant tones --- Resonant Body - Maggie Rogers
