Slip Like Water

Charm Of Finches

Compositor: Não Disponível

She doesn’t have control over your sympathy
If you want her to wreck herself for company
She will be the one to keep you happy
If she goes you’ll find another just as easily

Despite your ability to please her
You won’t find her smiling
Pleading to stay quiet
But you tell her it’s worth it
We’ll all watch in silence
Feeding you with confidence
You hold her future in your bare hands

You came one bright morning with your suitcase
Told us not to worry you’d find your own place
Secretly you gathered all you needed
Left us on the wind with only a wave

We wondered was she ever happy?
She seemed so quiet and lonely
The guilt over our shoulders
A blanket laid upon us
We’ll all watch in silence
Feeding lies with confidence
You held her future in your bare hands

Slip like water from my sea of grief
Too late now (?)
