lyrics

verse:
young creature of the woods
unbound by cans and shoulds
learns familiarity
with wicked metal lain between the trees

pre-chorus
and she spends so much time
getting caught, preparing to die
no expectation of a rescue
no one's coming to protect you

chorus:
little one, steel your spine
chew your foot off, don't think twice
cuz every tight embrace is a trap
all your life has taught you that

verse:
after years and years this way
creature lives this scene each day
every hug is a snare
too warm, too close, too strange to bear

pre-chorus
and she spends so much time
getting caught, preparing to die
no expectation of a rescue
no one's coming to protect you

chorus:
little one, steel your spine
chew your foot off, don't think twice
cuz every tight embrace is a trap
all your life has taught you that

bridge:
will the day ever come
when she hears a different drum
beating from another chest
and she doesn’t run, she finds some rest

pre-chorus
she spends so much time
getting caught, preparing to die
no expectation of a rescue
no one's coming to protect you

chorus:
little one, you were right
and that instinct saved your life
but some embraces will be home
places to land and to be known
you don’t deserve to walk alone
oh oh oh oh
take a breath
and take the hands that draw you close
take the hands that draw you close
take the hands that draw you close
oh take the hands that draw you close
