Never knew you dad
What was worth knowing?
Re-rolling your cigarettes?
Sucking and blowing?
We were so dumb
Time just hung
Deep in my breath
A firebird formed
I've been down here so long
Searching for fruit to grow strong
Meat in my lungs
Meat in my mouth
Smother my scream
Cut out my shout
Throw my whole world open
Fill my mind with doubt
The constant hope that the storm will weather me
Don't let me fade
Let me shout
