Didn’t think it’d take so long
To turn my tears into another song
But half a year has wheeled along
Since I felt something inside of me dying
To turn my tears into another song
But half a year has wheeled along
Since I felt something inside of me dying
I’m pretty proficient in the alchemy
Of changing the pain inside of me
Into lyrics, rhythm, and a melody-
And I swear to heaven I’m trying
Of changing the pain inside of me
Into lyrics, rhythm, and a melody-
And I swear to heaven I’m trying
But no matter how many times
I write a set of rhyming lines
Or paint my grief in new designs
It doesn’t end the crying
I write a set of rhyming lines
Or paint my grief in new designs
It doesn’t end the crying
Like thread through the eye
I learn to fly
And like a spider I’m mending
And I must learn to die
Like a butterfly
Before I get my happy ending
I learn to fly
And like a spider I’m mending
And I must learn to die
Like a butterfly
Before I get my happy ending
This grief it seems is bottomless
My tears have soaked my cotton dress
And every day I’ve gotten less
Hopeful of it ending
My tears have soaked my cotton dress
And every day I’ve gotten less
Hopeful of it ending
The dress I’m sure will be just fine
But after all this dreary time
Seems it’s not the cloth but what’s inside
That’s needful of some mending
But after all this dreary time
Seems it’s not the cloth but what’s inside
That’s needful of some mending
So, thread and needle in my hand
I’ve sewn on my shadow like Peter Pan
But is that even something that I can
Go about befriending?
I’ve sewn on my shadow like Peter Pan
But is that even something that I can
Go about befriending?
Like thread through the eye
I learn to fly
And like a spider I’m mending
And I must learn to die
Like a butterfly
Before I get my happy ending
I learn to fly
And like a spider I’m mending
And I must learn to die
Like a butterfly
Before I get my happy ending
Like thread through the eye
I learn to fly
And like a spider I’m mending
And I must learn to die
Like a butterfly
Before I get my happy ending
I learn to fly
And like a spider I’m mending
And I must learn to die
Like a butterfly
Before I get my happy ending
