| [00:32.389] |
My life started slow |
| [00:35.209] |
In a town of idle minds |
| [00:38.769] |
Where daydreams filled the space |
| [00:41.049] |
Between our simple dramas |
| [00:45.928] |
And my mom was strange |
| [00:48.748] |
But she'd always liked to sew |
| [00:53.386] |
And my clothes smelled like |
| [00:55.646] |
The room I was born in |
| [00:59.836] |
And my dad calm |
| [01:01.666] |
Never used two words when one'd do |
| [01:06.116] |
And my brother's hands were mischief bent |
| [01:09.326] |
With no will to stop 'em |
| [01:13.946] |
And on the whole |
| [01:16.026] |
We lived simply and day-to-day |
| [01:18.606] |
Our fears were trivial |
| [01:21.836] |
They always died with every sunset |
| [01:24.585] |
|
| [01:54.998] |
When I was twelve |
| [01:57.238] |
My affliction came to light |
| [02:01.008] |
And I was told that some things I heard |
| [02:04.078] |
Were only there in my head |
| [02:08.328] |
But I couldn't tell |
| [02:10.928] |
Which were real and which were now |
| [02:14.408] |
And the question loomed over all I did |
| [02:17.838] |
Whether I could trust it |
| [02:23.616] |
And I guess over time |
| [02:26.076] |
It became too much |
| [02:28.166] |
And I was sent away |
| [02:29.816] |
At my mom's behest |
| [02:31.636] |
Cause she'd grown to fear me |
| [02:33.416] |
|
| [03:03.257] |
Now I live up north |
| [03:06.067] |
In the house for the broken heads |
| [03:09.537] |
And my father comes and visits me |
| [03:12.827] |
Whenever he can afford it |
| [03:16.807] |
Sometimes at night |
| [03:19.747] |
When the voices quiet down |
| [03:23.027] |
I find I hope that I am missed |
| [03:26.417] |
And that they haven't forgot me |
