My Body is a Diary 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 forgot but memories are like tattoos

I carry them with me
my body is a diary
might not show it right away
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
