Back In My Body

Album: Heard It In A Past Life (2018)

  • I was stopped in London when I felt it coming down
    Crashing all around me with a great triumphant sound
    Like the dam was breaking and my mind came rushing in
    I was stopped in London, oh, I was awakening
    I was

    I was o'er in Paris when I almost ran away
    Two times round the block before I decided to stay
    Puffed along a cigarette that went and made me sick
    Spent another day pretending I was over it

    This time, I know I'm fighting
    This time, I know I'm (back in my body)
    This time, I know I'm fighting
    This time, I know I'm back in my body, oh
    I'm back in my body, oh

    (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

    And all along the highway there's a tiny whispering sound
    Saying I could find you in the dark of any town
    But all that I am hearing in the poem of my mind
    Are sullen, twisted words finding their way in every line

    Oh, this time, oh, this time

    This time, I know I'm fighting
    This time, I know I'm (back in my body)
    This time, I know I'm fighting
    This time, I know I'm (back in my body)
    Lost you in the border town of anywhere
    I found myself when I was going everywhere
    This time, I know I'm fighting
    This time, I know I'm

    (Back in my body, oh, oh)
    (Back in my body, oh, oh)
    (Back in my body, oh, oh)

    Oh, this time, oh, this time
    Oh, this time, oh, this time
    Oh, this time, oh, this time
    Oh, this time, oh, this time

    This time, I know I'm fighting
    This time, I know I'm (back in my body)
    This time, I know I'm fighting
    This time, I know I'm (back in my body)
    Lost you in the border town of anywhere
    I found myself when I was going everywhere
    This time, I know I'm fighting
    This time, I know I'm back in my body, oh
    I'm back in my body, oh
    I'm back in my body, oh
    Back in my body, oh, oh Writer/s: Maggie Rogers
