Born To

.

.

.

Held all within these flesh walls

Pair of dice and domino

Seven fingers and thirteen toes

Wind her up and watch her go

Spin her out of dust into rock and fire

Oh holy water

Throw her to the earth through the burning air

Oh bang survivor

.

And now you've gotta get it with what you've got

With what you've been given or not

Now you've gotta get it with what you've got

With what you've been given or not

I was born to

.

Held all within these flesh walls

Envelopes and time capsules

Mark her fingers and mark her throat

Spin her round and let her go

Send her like a cup to her mother's table

Swallow, drink the water

Watch her play her part in a long fixed fable

Oh as her father's daughter

.

And now you've gotta get it with what you've got

With what you've been given or not

Now you've gotta get it with what you've got

With what you've been given or not

I was born to, I was born to

I was born to, I was born to

.

Through the burning air

Through the burning air

.

And now you've gotta get it with what you've got

With what you've been given or not

Now you've gotta get it with what you've got

With what you've been given or not

I was born to, I was born to

I was born to, I was born to

I was born
