Like the day that I was born
I‘m alive despite the pressure
I‘ve arrived to learn the answers
In a hospital towel
The brightest day of my mother‘s life
But you pretend my lips are blue
Maybe I‘m dead to you (and only you)
Maybe im just dead to you
When you finally left you said
Never again, never again, never again
When I finally woke I said
Never again, never again, never again
Like christmas day at home
I‘m profoundly moved by letters
That hope I‘m feeling better
In a hospital gown
It was once the first moment of my life
To pretend my lips were blue
A decade passed and I met you
Maybe I‘m just dead to you
The only gift you chose to leave
Are fever dreams, the kind you still believe
I‘ll scream how it feels to feel
And you‘ll try so hard not to hear
Like the day I learned to read
Expressions meant to lie to me
Seeing forest from the trees
Losing trust in majesty
So I write to concentrate
On the echos down the storm drain
