unwoman - the fires i started lyrics

Loading...

i could stand here in the dark
until they bring me a gl-ss jar
to catch the things i want to catch
to keep a spider as a pet

i could howl up at the moon
until the ending comes too soon
for things i used to beg to fetch
things like you, my pet

and they would all see my unserious desperation
as my arms unfurl to retrieve words already spilled
all the fires i ever started can’t begin to warm me
they all got away — not one left a trace

i will end here listening
to the sound of my own breathing
to my many accomplishments
though you never heard what i meant

i will leave your memory
to those who see you clearly
i will not carve you into song
i tell everyone’s story wrong

and they would all see my unserious desperation
as my arms unfurl to retrieve words already spilled
all the fires i ever started can’t begin to warm me
they all got away — not one left a trace

this is the song you forget in a day
this is the love i threw away
this is the choice you forget in a day
this is the hope we threw away
