about

About wanting to go away.

lyrics

They say she looks like her mother did
That day she went away
Her father doesn’t speak of it
Or much of anything

Her mother left some autumn night
When she was very small
The neighbours speak the shame of it
Her father’s barely home, she’s living all alone

She will fly through the bushes
And she laughs and screams like she believes
No ones listening

She want’s to leave or so it seems
Maybe head for the sea
The mountains call the city screams
Anywhere but home

She’s planned it out in her head
Thought of everything
She’d walk it if she had to
She’d go by her feet, until they crack and they bleed
