Use My Body While It's Still Young - Rebekka Karijord

Use my body while it’s still young

Celebrate the life in my bone

My pounding heart oh make it rush and run

Use my palms to tie down the dark

The muscles and the veins could be sparks

To lift you up to make us glow at night (2)

The only thing that stops this noise is skin (2)

Use my words to make you feel safe

The syllables can tip on your head

Can make you smile so use them for a while (2)

The only thing that stops this noise is skin

Use my body while it’s still strong

Wrap yourself in all of this warmth

This aching love come use it while it’s alive (2)

We’ll all be gone in a hundred years
