PULSEAM

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

She arrives at the edge of the room

Splintering glass under bare feet

Every ending a beginning in reverse

She is folding the map while she walks

The door is the same door

She leaves through and enters through

Always the seam never the thread

Always the well never the water

Pre-Chorus

Circles of salt on the sill

Circles of ash on my tongue

She is the pulse underneath the pulse

Chorus

She begins she ends

She begins she ends

And the source is where we always are

And the source is where we always are

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Oh-oh oh-oh

Verse 2

I counted the ribs of the dark

One two three then the fourth was her voice

Naming me twice before I was born

Naming me once when I die

Tidal she turns in the marrow

Tidal she turns in the spine

And I am the bank and the breaking

And I am the wave and the brine

Pre-Chorus

Circles of rust on the rail

Circles of rain on the pane

She is the drum underneath the drum

Chorus

She begins she ends

She begins she ends

And the source is where we always are

And the source is where we always are

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Oh-oh oh-oh

Bridge

Seven strings strung through the ceiling

Seven bells buried in clay

Mother I came from your closing

Mother I leave through your opening

Same hand same wound same warm

Same hand same wound same warm

Breakdown

She is the source

She is the source

She is the source

And that is where we are

Chorus

She begins she ends

She begins she ends

And the source is where we always are

And the source is where we always are

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Oh-oh oh-oh
