C (Am)
Warm milk and honey sweeten my teeth
From little acorns you
You quietly made me
Made me into me
C (Am)
Paper thin skin stretched over my bones
From shells and pebbles you
You quietly made me
Made me a home
But I can't get used to being alone
And I won't get used to being alone
Under a full moon
Hopelessly trying to
Retrace our footsteps in the snow
I don't know when to hang on
And when to let go
[Recorder riff without last few notes: C C Am Am C C]
C (Am)
Foxes in boxes and butterfly blues
From little acorns you
You quietly made me
Made me into you
C (Am)
Holding it under my tongue 'til it stings
From all of my demons
You quietly saved me
Again and again
But now I feel them surface again
Yes I can feel them surface again
From little bubbles
Little air bubbles
Little embolysms grow
I don't know to hang on
Everything I feel feels wrong
I don't know when to hang on
And when to let go
[Recorder riff]
