paroles de chanson Blood and Bone - Tindersticks

And then I thought I saw something
Somewhere far in the distance
At least two hours on foot
Someplace where, perhaps
I might find something

Something important
Once mine, a part of me
And then I thought
"What if I could reach it
Get there and bring it back?"

This way I am more like you
And you are more like her
And she is more like him
And he is more like us
And we are more like them
All of them

This is me
Flattering, don't you think?
What am I really?
Expanding grayness?
Blood and bone?
Blood and bone?

Rather exposing, now
Naked teeth, Benadryl
Naked teeth, Benadryl
Would you have recognised me?
If only I hadn't told you
If only they hadn't shown you
I could still have a face

Is there anything worse than being transparent?
Is there anything worse than being transparent?
I'm data
I'm data, data
I'm data
Only data

Without face
Without shape, without soul
I am data, I am data
See me, study me
Use me, abuse me
Destroy me, dissect me
Rebuild me better

Without face
Without shape, without shape, without soul
Layer by layer (data, I am data)
I appear, the walls rapidly joining
Layer by layer
I see right through you

Is there anything worse than being transparent?
Prayers unfelt going around my ego
Temperature dropping, anxiety rising
Blood and bone, blood and bone

Closed lips consume hurt
I wonder what will become of my last hiding place
Can every door be opened?
Is there really no shelter?

Use me, abuse me
Destroy me, dissect me
Rebuild me better
Without face, without shape
Without shape, without soul
Without voice

See me, study me
Use me, abuse me
Destroy me, dissect me
Rebuild me better
Without face, without shape
Without shape, without soul
Layer by layer
Without soul
I think it could perfectly joining

See me, study me
Use me, abuse me
Destroy me, dissect me
Rebuild me better
Without face, without shape
Without shape, without soul

Layer by layer
I appear
The walls rapidly joining
Layer by layer
You see right through me
I wonder what will become from my last hiding place
Can every door be opened?
Is there really no shelter?
