Applesawse

[Intro]
Ooooh, it hums inside your head
It’s alive, it’s alive
It’s the wire, it’s the thread
It’s the reason you survive

[Verse 1]
Your pain is umbilical
The whole world can feel it
The dog in the alley
The cracks in the ceiling

There’s a black thread from your brain
To the center of the Earth
That you think you can contain
But your gravity is worse

[Chorus]
Hey! It’s umbilical
Hey! It’s under the floor
Hey! It runs through the wires
Hey! It hums in the core

[Verse 2]
Your pain is a satellite
It hums in every ear
It whispers in the traffic
“I am still here, I am still here”

There’s a hum beneath the floor
A signal, soft and slow
You can’t hide it anymore
The whole world wants to know

[Chorus]
Hey! It’s umbilical
Hey! It’s older than sin
Hey! It’s warm in your heart
Hey! It’s cold on your skin

[Bridge]
You pass it like a secret
You pass it like a prayer
It’s a baby, it’s a burden
It’s the smoke inside the air

[Chorus]
Hey! It’s umbilical
Hey! It’s wired to the sun
Hey! It’s deep in the ground
Hey! It connects everyone

[Outro]
Your pain is umbilical
The whole world can feel it
But in that thread of sorrow
There’s a light that wants to heal it

Ooooh, it hums inside your head
It’s alive, it’s alive
A thread of glowing red
must survive, must survive…
