My Body
A Love Like Pi Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can barely wait to see your face
Crack its weary mouth
And let the words float into space
I have learned the Mississippi's pain
Every path I take ends up the same

My body isn't quite a symphony
But if you would put your ears close to me

You'd find that in this dark room at night, oh
But in this dark room
Oh, my eyelashes are cymbal crashes

I can barely wait to leave this room
My nervous heart plays pits ocado
Parts inside the tomb
And every empty note will seem to sling
Itself against the walls and make them sing

Oh, do, do, do, do, do, do
Try to catch the truth and broken cells
Oh, do, do, do, do, do, do
Try to catch the truth and you will fail

My body isn't quite a symphony
But if you would put your ears close to me
You'd find that in this dark room at night, oh
Well, in this dark room
Oh, my eyelashes are cymbal crashes

My body isn't quite a symphony
But if you would put your ears close to me
You'd find that in this dark room at night, oh
Well in this dark room
Oh, my eyelashes are cymbal crashes

You can't hear me now
You can't hear me now
You can't hear me now

Do, do, do, do, do, do
You can't hear me now
Do, do, do, do, do, do
You can't hear me now

Do, do, do, do, do, do
(My body isn't quite)
You can't hear me now
Do, do, do, do, do, do
(But if you would put your ears)
You can't hear me now

Do, do, do, do, do, do
(You'd find in this dark room at night)
(Well, in this dark room
Oh, my eyelashes)
You can't hear me now

Do, do, do, do, do, do

(Are cymbal crashes)
You can't hear me now

Line by Line Meaning

I can barely wait to see your face
I am filled with anticipation to finally see you in person

Crack its weary mouth
I hope to see a hint of a smile on your face

And let the words float into space
I am eager to hear what you have to say

I have learned the Mississippi's pain
I have experienced challenges and difficulties before

Every path I take ends up the same
I always seem to find myself in similar situations, no matter where I go

My body isn't quite a symphony
I don't consider myself to be perfect or flawless

But if you would put your ears close to me
If you listen carefully, you may notice hidden beauty within me

You'd find that in this dark room at night, oh
In this moment, there is something special happening between us

Well, in this dark room
Despite the darkness around us, there is a unique energy at play

Oh, my eyelashes are cymbal crashes
Even my smallest movements can create beautiful sounds

I can barely wait to leave this room
I am eager to experience more of life beyond this current moment

My nervous heart plays pits ocado
I am filled with anxiety and doubt

Parts inside the tomb
I feel trapped by my own emotions and experiences

And every empty note will seem to sling
Even my silences feel heavy with emotion

Itself against the walls and make them sing
My presence and energy can fill any space, even if I'm not making noise

Try to catch the truth and broken cells
Even if you try to understand me, there will always be parts of me that are fractured and difficult to comprehend

Try to catch the truth and you will fail
My true self is indescribable and can't be fully understood by anyone else

You can't hear me now
Despite my presence, I feel invisible and unheard
