[Intro] (breath; vinyl crackle; hiss; Rhodes; sub-bass pulse) [Verse 1] I've been walking in the ashes of the person I was yesterday brushing off the embers of a fire I can't explain My old self is a forest that the wildfire cleared by dawn the seedlings don't remember what was burning long before [Pre-Chorus] Everything I thought I'd lose was feathers I was born to shed [Chorus] New beginnings, pulse and glow New beginnings, slow, soft, slow I'm the snake that shed its skin against the neon the one I was is drying in the road, and I go on [Verse 2] Under the apartment block the bulbs are pushing through the stone they don't ask the winter for the right to bloom alone I am a river that has broken from the bed it used to keep every morning cuts a new bank in the country while I sleep [Bridge] Every cell I'm made of is a stranger to the one I buried in the fall I'm a candle burning down to be a little light for all [Final Chorus] New beginnings, pulse and glow New beginnings, slow, soft, slow I'm the snake that shed its skin against the neon the one I was is drying in the road, and I go on [Outro] (filter sweep; vocal chop; fade into static)
