about

Written in 2015

This song is about letting go of ones country and relationships so as to pursue ones dreams.

lyrics

Fight the fire in me
Flee this black-roof country
Do you know me?

What is this slow delay?
Standing with my head in my hands
What do you want to say?
I feel like i'll wait till i'm dead
Get to know me
Then you'll owe me

CHORUS:
This is the last thing I will show you
This is the last seed I will sow with you

Sell my body to thee
I'll be their prodigy
They don't own me

CHORUS

I curse this summer day
Standing with my lungs in my hands
How did we go astray
replaying the shit in my head!

You should clone me
then you'll own me

CHORUS
