lyrics

I thought I could hear you calling ‘round the corner of my soul
Like a distant wind or something speaking languages I know

I thought I could feel you pulling like a child upon my sleeve
And If you were just a child, maybe then I would not grieve

I never asked for much from you, how could I be angry then?
What was I supposed to do? Is it all true?

Well a child does not abandon, it does not go both ways
How could I abandon you? I don’t have mysterious ways

I grew inside the water of somebody I heard sing
And right then I met my mother, right then I heard her scream

I never asked for much from you, how could I be angry then?
What was I supposed to do?
Is it all true

What is it about this city that makes me think I fell?
What is it about the anger like a stranger in a well
I’ve just gotten off the plane, my heart went heavy with the wake
Like a choice I did not make
Like a choice I did not make

I never asked for much from you
How could I be angry then?
What was I supposed to Do?
Is it all true

After all
This talk of cities.
It’s not the city that I hate
It’s that this is where you left me standing naked at the gate
