Ripples and Arithmetic

from The Winter Switch by Tape Hiss and Sparkle

/

lyrics

part of what our muscles fought
part of where our hearts were made
ripples and arithmetic
fight out the shadows there
we survived those falls
we took care
this is everything to me
fields of flowers rows of trees
ripples and arithmetic
fight out the shadows there
we survived those falls
we took care

what is this to me
my defiance buried deep
equations answer me
hands on the heart of being

i wrote down all of those words
and we pushed out all that noise
ripples arithmetic
tried to make some sense of this
to cure our own youth's powerlessness
shedding skins and chasing out bad spirits in my blood
ripples and arithmetic
i am still the separate one
i am still the surviving son

oh now the story carries on
