Daughter - If you leave by anna frey

Daughter If you leave

Winter

Drifting apart like two sheets of ice, my love // Frozen hearts growing colder with time // There’s no heat from our mouths // Please take me back to my rich youth And we were in flames, I needed I needed you // To run through my veins, like disease //And now we are strange, strangers It’s different now // Gray faced // Eyes burnt out // Flames are gone // Gloves are on // I have a feeling // Love’s gone back // Went to the cinema, losing our minds // With comic fever, shutting confined spaces // Lost in the dark, my heart taken // Resting on your heart And we were in flames, I needed I needed you // To run through my veins, like disease // And now we are strange, strangers Wait for // Me to // Degrade before // You go // Caring // Pray for // Waste of Daylight // Speaks when // Sun burns keeping // Undeveloped // Out of revenge And degrading // My youth and stained on our sheets // It’s on a piece of me It’s on a piece of me Winter comes // Winter crush all // I’ve heard things that // I once had

I’m wasted, losing time // I’m a foolish, fragile spine // I want all that is not mine // I want him but we’re not right In the darkness I will meet my creators // And they will all agree, that I’m a suffocator I should go now quietly // For my bones have found a place // To lie down and sleep // Where all my layers can become reeds // All my limbs can become trees // All my children can become me // What at mess I leave // To follow [4x] In the darkness I will meet my creators // And They will all agree, I’m a suffocator Suffocator // Suffocator Oh no // I’m sorry if I smothered you [2x] // I sometimes wish I’d stayed inside // My mother // Never to come out

Smother

Still

I’ll wrap up my bones // And leave them //Out of this home // Out on the road Two feet standing on a principle // Two hands longing for each others warmth Cold smoke seeping out of colder throats // Darkness falling // Leaves nowhere to go [Bridge] It’s spiraling down // Biting words like a wolf howling // Hate is spitting out each others mouths // But we’re still sleeping like we’re lovers [Refr.] Still with feet touching // Still with eyes meeting // Still our hands match // Still with hearts beating Two feet standing on a principle // Two hands digging in each others wounds Cold smoke seeping out of colder throats // Darkness falling, leaves nowhere to move It’s spiraling down // Biting words like a wolf howling // Hate is spitting out each others mouths // But we’re still sleeping like we‘re lovers [Refr.] [3x] I’ll wrap up my bones // And leave them // Out of this home // Out on the road [Bridge]

Shadows settle on the place, that you left // Our minds are troubled by the emptiness // Destroy the middle, it’s a waste of time // From the perfect start to the finish line And if you’re still breathing, you’re the lucky ones // ’Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs // Setting fire to our insides for fun Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong // The lovers that went wrong We are the reckless // We are the wild youth // Chasing visions of our futures One day we’ll reveal the truth // That one will die before he gets there And if you’re still bleeding, you’re the lucky ones // ’Cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone // We’re setting fire to our insides for fun // Collecting pictures from the flood that wrecked our home // It was a flood that wrecked this home. And you caused it [3x] Well I’ve lost it all, I’m just a silhouette // A lifeless face that you’ll soon forget // My eyes are damp from the words you left // Ringing in my head when you broke my chest // Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest And if you’re in love, then you are the lucky one // ’Cause most of us are bitter over someone // Setting fire to our insides for fun // To distract our hearts from ever missing them // But I’m forever missing him // And you caused it [3x]

Youth

Tomorrow

By tomorrow we’ll be swimming with the fishes // Leave out troubles on the side // And when the sun comes out // We’ll be nothing but dust // Just the outlines of our house By tomorrow we’ll be lost amongst the leaves // In a wind that chills the skeletons of trees // And when the moon, it shines, I will leave two lines Find my love, then find me Don’t bring tomorrow // ’Cause I already know... // …I‘ll lose you… Don’t bring tomorrow // ’Cause I already know… // … I‘ll lose you… …I’ll lose you … By tomorrow I’ll be left in the darkness // Amongst your cold sheets // And your shoes will be gone // And your body warmth no longer beside me But don’t bring tomorrow // ’Cause I already know… // …I’ll lose you… Don’t bring tomorrow // ’Cause I already know… // … I’ll lose …// … I’ll lose… ...You...

Woken up like an animal // Teeth ready for sinking // My mind’s lost in bleak vision // I tried to escape but keep sinking Limbs lost to a dead wait steak // Skull cage like a prison // And he has lost faith to ever see again // So may he once taught of me then Underneath the skin there’s a human // Buried deep within there’s a human And despite everything I’m still human // But I think I’m dying here Waking up like an animal // I’m all ready for healing // My mind’s lost with nightmares streaming // Waking up (kicking screaming) Take me out of this place I’m in // Break me out of this shale case I’m in Underneath the skin there’s a human // Buried deep within there’s a human And despite everything I’m still human I think that I’m still human [3x] Underneath the skin there’s a human // Buried deep within there’s a human // And despite everything I’m still human But I think I’m dying here

Human

Touch

Love hunt me down // I can’t stand to be so dead behind the eyes // And feed me spark me up // A creature in my blood stream choose me up So I can feel something // So I can feel something Give me touch // ’Cause I’ve been missing it // I’m dreaming of //Strangers Kissing me in the night // Just so I // Just so I Can feel something [4x] You steal me away // With your eyes and with your mouth // And just take me back to in your house // And stare at me with the lights off To feel something [4x] In the night // In the night // In the night // When we touch // In the night ’Cause I’ve been lusting it

From the beginning // Small lifeforms // They can kill without warning So you don’t explode // Stump your growing limps and thinking // And you’ve lost them now you’re blinking // And reminding her of him Oh you steal his features // And your mother is a bleacher // She don’t even feel the heat no // She don’t even want to speak to you But you, you always find another place to go // (Oh you) you always find another womb to grow Well you can try to sink down deeply // And find the children lost at sea Find the children who discretely // Be killed in infancy // To stop them holding you and screaming // That you’ll lose your wildest dreaming Still reminding me what I feel // How he left without reasons But you, you always find another place to go // (Oh you) you always find another womb to grow You can try to forget but I won’t let you easy // You can try to forget but I won’t let you easy // I’m flooding out and more I’m too washed out to see // Drifting away this time you’ll regret you’ve conceived it // Clean up the dead you leave behind // Just like insects Clean up the dead you leave behind

Lifeforms

Amsterdam

Skin off like lightning // Breathing flames from thoraces tray // Your eyes go gray finding // You lock your gaze on to my face Heavy eye clothing on the roadside // Swinging from the street lights I hope by the morning I will have grown back // By the morning I will have grown back // I’ll escape with him // Show him all my skin // Then I’ll go I’ll go home // Amsterdam I’m a flying kite in the breeze just // Restlessly seeking images a child needs to help them sleep // I was thinking that I should see someone // Just to find out that I’m alright By the morning I would’ve grown back // By the morning I would’ve grown back // I’ll escape with him // Showing all my skin // Then I’ll go I’ll go home // Amsterdam I used to dream of // Adventure // When I was younger // With lungs miniature Good night with killing // Our brain cells // Is this called living // Or something else // Or something else By the morning I would’ve grown back [4x]

Shallows

Let the water rise // Let the ground crack // Let me fall inside // Lying on my back // Lying on my back Dry your smoke-stung eyes // So you can see the light // Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re staring at the sky // Watching stars collide // Watching stars collide If you leave // When I go // Find me // In the shallows When the time comes // On the last day // When they start to come down Will you just // Will you run away? // Will you run away? And let it all rain down // From the blood stained clouds // Come out, come out, to the sea my love // And just // Drown with me // Drown with me If you leave // When I go // Find me // In the shallows Lying on my back // Watching stars collide
