lyrics

I am the only shadow on the wall at 2am,
I am a lonely daughter,
I am gone-
But it’s just as well,
You don’t come calling anymore,
Don’t crash into me, I am not your shore,

I am your windows open,
I am your breeze blowing through,
I am my damp hair soaking my pillow through,
I am your waxwork, I have melted to the floor,

I am renewed now; I am something more.

You are the image-cutter,
You’re the scissors,
You’re the train,
You are hauling cargo and by its size you are amazed,
You know your strength and your mind is cruel,

But you are gentle sometimes,
And for that I’ll be a fool,

If I am an open hand, you’re the fist behind my back,
Resentment lines my coat but I am grateful that-
I knew you and I have suffered through,

I am gentle sometimes and it’s those times I think of you,

We were only shadows on those walls at 2am,
Both lonely daughters; now gone but it’s as well,
You don’t. We don’t.
Call anymore,
I cannot be you washed on another shore,

I am the windows open,
Can you feel that breeze blowing through?
I am my damp hair soaking my pillows through,
I was your waxwork, now melted to the floor,

I am renewed now; I am something more.
