Vestiges
03:33
|
|||
my life without you
ostensibly the same
cannot be conveyed by the
expression on my face
don’t want to grow older
if you won’t see me change
already have too much to tell you
no son of mine or daughter
will ever know you
as anything other than the vestiges
of the father i once knew
i’m flipping through notebooks
i wasn’t meant to read
a part of you i don’t want to see
im thinking anyone who meets me now
they won’t ever really know me
if they can’t know who i came from
no son of mine or daughter
will ever know you
as anything other than the vestiges
of the father i once knew
and i will live the
biggest life for you
so no one can ever
forget you
and i will live the
biggest life for you
so no one can ever
forget you

lily
my friend
we’re older now, time has passed
how exactly did we end up here?
i know you’re a
strong woman
silk hair behind you
you’ve always done exactly what you want
is this how it ought to be?
what could i tell you?
to open you up
to a new kind of living
to a new kind of love
theres always a place for you
with me
whenever you need
ill be here waiting
expect
only the same
when those who raised you caused you pain
all the patterns linger in your head
my blood
is boiling
but i feel so powerless to him
i know i could lead to a consequence
lily
is this how it ought to be?
what could i tell you?
to open you up
to a new kind of living
to a new kind of love
theres always a place for you
with me
whenever you need
ill be here waiting

Nothing You Can Say
01:27
|
|||
is there something
in this tragedy you like to see?
do you think to yourself
oh, that should be me up there
well i dont know you
but you have something to say?
now that i’ve lost someone?
theres nothing you’ll alleviate
and i’m sure that
your intentions are good
but you wanna hear your own voice
why would i want to talk to you?
you think you want a part in this
i promise you, you don’t
it’s paralyzing
its not so romantic upclose
i didn’t need you then
and i don’t need you now
i don’t need you now
i don’t need you now
nothing you could say
i don’t already know
i don’t already know
i don’t already know
if i didn’t need you then
i don’t need you now
i don’t need you now
i don’t need you now
nothing you could say
i don’t already know
i don’t already know
i don’t already know

Forgive
03:30
|
|||
oh my love i am so tired
of all that is so fraught
i can’t pretend im happy
when im simply not
nothing more i can give
you’ll have to care for yourself this time
i know i can’t change for you
i’m not even gonna try
oh, my love
forgive me
it’s just my life
what more can i do
its everything that made me
so much stronger than you
i’ve shown you the parts of me
i don’t want anybody to see
i’ll love all of you
if you love all of me
oh, my love
forgive me
i’ve been patient through
so many things
yes, i’ll love all of you
if you love all of me

Delusion
01:32
|
|||
oh how i’d love
to find solace in you
somewhere there’s semblance
of what i’m going through
but you live in delusion
i’ve sought out nothing
who is it that
is really to blame?
know how i was treated
and its not what you say
you live in delusion
that’s just fine
but i don’t pretend to know your story
don’t pretend to know mine
and i am too empty
to contradict you
and i will surrender
so i don’t have to lose you too
i love you
i love you
i’ll hold on to you
please hold on too

Vessel
03:32
|
|||
how can i hold your memory
with the most gentle care?
as i move on without you
will your vestiges disappear?
ooh
ooh
ooh
ooh
no longer is my body
a vessel for just one
cause coursing through me always
is your blood
ooh
ooh
ooh
ooh
will all that i’ve lost i’ve been down
gonna need something big
to replace you now
i will do anything
will all that i’ve lost i’ve been down
gonna need something big
to replace you now
i will do anything
ooh
ooh
ooh
ooh
and so with every breath i
work to preserve you
we are inseparable now
live is all i have to do
ooh
ooh
ooh
ooh

I'm Not
03:36
|
|||
can i will
myself into
the shape of
something good for you?
something that will
put on a show
a body i couldn’t ever
recognize as my own
but by now i know that i have
grown so old
i’ve faded baby
time has taken its toll
and you’ve taken
my voice away
is it cause you know i have
something revealing to say?
i tried to be what you wanted
tried to be what you wanted
i tried to be what you wanted
tried to be what you wanted
but im not
im not
im not
im not
im not
im not
im not
im not
im not
im not
im not
im not
