Emily
Give yourself to the sky. Give yourself to a pyre Upon which you'll lie Give yourself up to find, Give yourself up to be released, So you could be free And if it comes down to it Whatever doesn't matter now Can tell us both somehow But it doesn't really matter now You're estranged and underground Letras de cancionesHave we lost our guardian angel Ten forty five and the wind stopped blowing I couldn't see it but the world stopped turning Eight years old, a bolt of lightning crashes. Pick your fight or flight responses and Tell me nothing's wrong when there is Mommy I'm scared, take, take me home Give yourself up to the sky, A bullet, a tear, a lightning rod Give yourself up to be free, Let me see the sun through the trees. Give yourself up for me, And I will spend my nights in disbelief And if it comes down to it Whatever doesn't matter now Can tell us both somehow But it doesn't really matter now You're estranged and underground Have we lost our free-spirited girl Ten forty five and the wind stopped blowing I couldn't see it but the world stopped turning Eight years old, a bolt of lightning crashes. Pick your fight or flight responses and Tell me nothing's wrong when there is Mommy I'm scared, take, take me home No radio to call my mother station No radio and no communication Well if I'm a beacon now you should've seen me before 'Cause I'm burning brighter than the sun Well if I was a shadow before well you should see me now 'Cause I'm a black star collapsing in on itself But it doesn't really matter now You're estranged and underground Have we lost our sweet Emily? Ten forty five and the wind stopped blowing I couldn't see it but the world stopped turning Eight years old, a bolt of lightning crashes. Pick your fight or flight responses and Tell me nothing's wrong when there is Mommy I'm scared, take, take me home And it's a winter night and I'm thinking about you, Thinking about you, I'm so lost without you And in a mother's arms are emptiness scars From a life ripped away before it could thrive. ... Ten forty five and my world stopped turning Inside your heart a flame stopped burning Eight years old, a bolt of lightning crashes. Pick your fight or flight responses. Tell me nothing's wrong when there is. I heard you scream my name, my Emily. But I can't sleep to dream anymore. It's hard when I try and think of you. I pray every night for the memory to stay alive, But you're gone now. And it rained from a clear blue sky at your funeral, A rainbow cascaded across the sky; I know you were looking down on me saying "Mom, you've just got to try." "You've just got to try."
