I am a girl with | |
a forgettable face | |
No matter my colour, | |
no matter my name | |
At work there is a boy | |
and he treats me well | |
My old friends | |
from high school, | |
I see them around | |
August is here | |
I can't believe how fast | |
Soon there will be winter | |
and snow on the ground | |
Maybe by then I could | |
get my own place | |
Closer to the city | |
if that's ok | |
But Mamma, can you feel me | |
As I dragged on | |
my day's last cigarette | |
He pulled me so hard off my | |
Very own back door steps | |
And he laid me in his garden | |
All the years | |
i've watched him tend | |
And then he took me, Mamma | |
So I could never | |
tell you about it | |
Inside of this moment | |
there are | |
Things I wish I could know | |
Like my ring size, | |
your ring size, | |
And the hour I was born | |
My dad's middle name, | |
your favourite song | |
Was your darkest day | |
as dark as this one? | |
Mamma, can you feel me? | |
As I dragged on | |
my day's last cigarette | |
He pulled me so hard off my | |
Very own back door steps | |
And he laid me in his garden | |
All the years | |
i've watched him tend | |
He took me, Mamma | |
So I could never | |
tell you about it | |
Now I'm a girl who's face | |
they'll never forget |
