Looking at you I see her face
Through all these years, just waiting
It all catches up to you when you slow down
I'm back in that yard,
tasting that shame
Of pushing her down, Of kids and her games
their strongholds
We had a bigger world - we had a better view
I guess I never fully realized then
What she lost when I cut that loss
(intro)
So she filled the void with unearthly friends
Voices of hers - greater
We had a bigger world - we had a better view
I wish she'd never told us about her voices
We were strong, we were much too strong
(intro) - *Never forgive - never forget *
We fed her shouts
For the collection of her voices
I was too weak to collect
But so, it turned out, was she
Now I can see she proved to be right
As she was called down
It's sad though
that I turned out to be one of her voices.
