about

This song is the first of twelve. It's about knowing that the body you have is the only one you'll ever have, so you should treat it as well as you can.

lyrics

I am the sum of flesh and bones
built up and slowly grown
I am me

Eyes can only see what I see
but what if I were somebody

This little boat is my vessel tonight
and I'll lead it home by the streetlights
It is the one thing that I cannot flight
this body is mine for life

Why do I let it take the heat
keep on pushing when it's beaten down

I'll try to treat it with respect
from this life 'til it ends
it is mine

This little boat is my vessel tonight
and I'll lead it home by the streetlights
It is the one thing that I cannot flight
this body is mine for life

This body is mine for life
