Blood And Marrow (Stro Elliot Remix) Lyrics by Hiatus Kaiyote

 

Not a speck of dust on chrysanthemum, feather on the breath of the mother tongue
Awake in full bloom with the sleeping sun
Pomegranate jewel between lip and thumb

We are only, love and longing
We are only, love and longing

It’s all clearer beyond fawn and weather
Hands and cheek and flowers pressed together
When the sea and sky are one like mirror
When the wind and river are old lovers

We are only, love and longing
We are only, love and longing

You could get through to the blood and marrow
You could get through to the blood and marrow
deeper than a cinder in snow

And silently
Bathe the body in silence
Bathe the body in silence
And let it eat you alive

You could get through to the blood and marrow, deeper than a cinder in snow
You could get through to the blood and marrow, deeper than a cinder in snow
You could get through to the blood and marrow, deeper than a cinder in snow
You could get through to the blood and marrow

Not a speck of dust on chrysanthemum
