Lyrics
My father says I look more like my mother,
and lately my voice is starting to change.
How is it to love some true, like a daughter, when she looks like the woman who broke you? How strange.
"Would you talk to her?
Or the ones you once loved?
Did you forget so easily the danger and blush?"(chorus)
And there's heavy in me that flies low like an arrow, spinning and sick as the string is released. And I choke tongue-tied and the sight of this forest. Finally, I am small and can see.
(chorus)
Someday it becomes, you have less left to love than you've loved. It's not easy to say that we know everything that we feel goes away.
These days that pass so quickly they wreck me, like a too brash car crash you can't swerve away. And it's not that I'm doing God's work or nothing, its just boredom's my killer that keeps me awake.
So Would you talk to me?
Am I the one you once loved?
Did you forget so easily my danger and rust?
