lyrics

I thought about my uselessness
Until it made me sick
Pressed my face against the pillowcase
Clicked and scrolled and clicked
What was it I did
That wasn't good enough for him?
Should I have loved him
More desperately?

The wind rushed in labor pushes
As I looked down from the bridge
I thought about my years spent
Holding a handsome knife by the blade
And then a bird flew down
Like some cliche of absolution
And I saw the way the grass crept up
Through the cracks in the construction
And I was part of everything
With my pain and imperfection
And the chill in the autumn air
Felt like a shock, felt like connection

Ooh, it's the natural world
The only thing that can save me
I am part of the natural world
Nothing to judge or to love me

River, river running
Past parking lots and fields
I feel the winter coming
The way I feel the way I feel
And then cold light streams down
Through the clouds like acceptance
And I know the fear and loneliness
Will pass like years or words in a sentence

Ooh, it's the natural world
The only thing that can save me
I am part of the natural world
Nothing to judge or to love me
