[Chorus]
Don't let this touch you
Don't let this touch you

[Verse 1]
Words are birds
Words are snow
Words whisper
Words don't make the rain go

[Verse 2]
Wilderness
Can't be done
Unfinished
Can't be done

[Chorus]
Don't let it touch you
Don't let this touch you

[Verse 3]
Words are blanks
Words are ghosts
Words are God
Words don't make the rain go
[Verse 4]
I'm confused
By freedom
What do you do?
With freedom?

[Bridge]
I heard them in the dark
Heard the things they do
I heard the heavy whispers
Whispering, 'don't let this touch you'
(How, how?
How, how?
How, how?
How, how?)

[Chorus]
Don't let this touch you
Don't—
Don't let it touch you
Don't—

[Verse 5]
His glowing face
By the stove
His orange face
Daddy, make the rain go
