Nothing At All
When you were little
You saw wings of the dove
You wrote death in a letter
To your true love
Your family was murdered
Over 40 days
And in the arms of a stranger
You were somehow safe
Are you going to come to my pity party?
If you say that you’re sorry
It’s okay
You know you are the only
One who came here
With salt in your mouth
And if you stay
And show me the shame
On your dark heart
You know I’ll pull it out
You were something before
Now you’re nothing at all
I still love you
When you were taller
Every year you stayed
That’s the only number
In my private parade
Now that you’re little
You see things from above
You read death in the letters
From your true love
It’s okay
You know you’re not the only
One who came here
With salt in your mouth
If you stay
And show me the shame
On your dark heart
You know I’ll pull it out
You were something before
Now you’re nothing at all
I still love you
Two three four
One two three four
It, it, it’s okay
You are not the only one who came
