LYRICS : History



You're the shaded sun 
You're daddy's broken gun 
You're the loneliest moon 
You are a butterfly dreaming about your cocoon 
You're the only sound when I am blind 
So I label you mine 

You're the house you grew up in 
You're always just arriving at your end 
You're your mama's shit eatin' grin and your daddy's double chin 
You're the first pair of shoes you ever went to school in 
And you're the kid pretending she's in prison 
Behind the bars of a jungle gym 

Someone's gonna give you wings 
And you'll think it's what you need 
And you'll fly, man
You'll be so high 

But your history acts as your gravity 
Your history acts as your gravity 
Acts as your history acts as your gravity 

You're the only one you ever believe in 
You're the solution and you are the problem 
You're a rapist and your only victim 
You are fact and you are fiction 
You're the only one you've considered a friend 
And now you're alive 
Waiting for your life to begin again 

You try to find you, you who is lost 
But you're hooked to the rush of approaching chaos 
You're king for a minute but a fool for an hour 
Alone in your room 
You are a closed flower 
Dreams of your shadow you're going to destroy 
The way you handle yourself 
Like an unbreakable toy
