And I am alone, so don't speak
I find war, and I find peace
I find no heat, no love in me

And I am low and unwell
This is love, this is hell
This sweet plague that follows me

And my body's weak
Feel my heart giving up on me
I'm worried it might just be
And my body's weak
Feel my lungs giving up on me
I'm worried it might just be
Something my soul needs
Something my soul needs

And I see war on the screen,
And it is cruel and unclean,
But I still worry more about you

And I am rude and unkind
Have no thought, and have no time
Have no eyes, so no point of view

And my body's weak
I feel my heart giving up on me
I'm worried it might just be
My body's weak
Feel my lungs giving up on me
I'm worried it might just be
Something my soul needs
Something my soul needs
Something my soul needs

And I am more than this frame,
I feel hurt and I feel shame
I just wish you would feel the same

And I am more than these bones
I feel love, I feel alone
I just wish you would come home

My body's weak
I feel my heart giving up on me
I'm worried it might just be
My body's weak
Feel my lungs giving up on me
I'm worried it might just be
Something my soul needs
Something my soul needs
Something my soul needs

Is you, lying next to me
And it's you, lying next to me

No. 
Yuk.
There...raised it to 4.2, gave it a 6 (actually saw it switch...I never see it switch)
Touching but boring.......
My ears tell me it's worth more than a measly 4.1.  So I'm giving it a 7 to make it up.

Ha. Raised it to 4.2 ...
Ew.   Nasally, whiny voice with shades of that affected whispery breathy sound that is so ridiculously popular. 
my ears are telling me that Tiny Tim and Sufjan Stevens had a baby.
I looked up the guy to see if he was Passenger. (Looks like no.)
I don't particularly dislike this song. I just wish bits of it were shorter. 
Not liking this. Tremolo belongs on the guitar, not the vocals.

Edit: I noticed that the lyrics are not in sync with the song. This exact song is not called 'Small Hands' but 'Flesh and Bone'.

 
Well spotted!!  Bill fixed the glitch.
Pretty brave album title, Dude.  I wouldn't publicly be admitting that.  Are we still doing phrasing?

Not a song to get me motivated on a Monday morning...
Beautiful stripped arrangement, lovely voice, strong lyrics.
Sweet voice
 
Am I 1st?  Little melancholy this tune.
