My Body Is a Diary

Song My Body Is a Diary
Artist Clara Luzia
Album Railroad Tracks

Lyrics

I gave my bird away
Released it on a winter's day
I hid the cage away
In the darkest corner of my cave
Drew circles in the snow
Developed a strong vertigo
I tried to forget
But memories are like tattoos
I carry them with me
My body is a diary
It might not show it right away
But it remembers every day
I write on paper not my skin
Read my arm like poetry
Scars cover memories
They keep them safe, lock them away
I carry them with me
My body is a diary
Read me like poetry
My body is a diary
I will gain peace of mind
The day I let myself rewind
Will read my diary like poetry
