Lyrics

[Verse 1]

There’s dirt beneath my fingernails

Coffee ring on your old book

Highlighter on a borrowed line

I never thought to take a second look

[Chorus]

Dust you are

And to dust you shall return

Every heartbeat

Is a match that slowly burns

Lay it all down

Every title, every turn

Dust you are

And to dust you shall return

[Verse 2]

Grandma’s chair in the attic light

Pressed rose in a broken spine

All our plans in a cardboard box

Names fading on the packing twine

[Chorus]

Dust you are

And to dust you shall return

Every heartbeat

Is a match that slowly burns

Lay it all down

Every title, every turn

Dust you are

And to dust you shall return

[Bridge]

So teach my stubborn hands to open

Teach my restless tongue to pray

If I’m just breath on a cold glass window

Let Your love be what remains

[Chorus]

Dust I am

And to dust I shall return

Every heartbeat

Is a grace I didn’t earn

I lay it all down

Every title, every turn

Dust I am

And to You I shall return
