Lyrics
Description
The driveway′s cracked where the bikes used to lay In a neighborhood frozen in a permanent may We′re ten years old, with a scraped-up knee Building a kingdom in a willow tree
I watched from the porch, a silent observer A tiny heart filled by a quiet fervor But my hands stayed folded, my lips stayed sealed A miniature fortress that would never yield I was a girl child guarding a shrine Where the light of your laughter met the shadows of mine
And it′s a fast-forward rewind, a glitch in the clock I′m running through the decades on a gravel walk Oh, it′s an upbeat anthem for a love I deny For the purity I buried and the girl that I hide I′m not sinking in sorrow, I′m just telling the tale Of how the first spark makes the rest of them pale
Why didn′t I give? Why didn′t I stay? The stars were aligned, but I looked the other way I had a duty to the walls I′d built high Afraid if I loved you, the girlhood would die So I rejected the pulse, I turned off the heat And then I refused, I′ll make the darkness complete A shadow grew in the space It should have been a cynical shade Where the light had been thin I made myself cold
To keep the memory pure A self-inflicted wound I would never find a cure Now I walk into rooms and I scan every face Looking for a ghost in a modern-day space He′s got your eyes, but he lacks the spark He′s got your voice, but he′s afraid of the dark I compare them like notes in a symphony score But they′re just echoes of a closing door I despise that I do it
This internal theft Stealing the peasant for the ghost that is left But I don′t hate the world that I′ve managed to be Just a time-traveling heart that won′t let me be free
If I could slip through the fabric, a tear in the sky I′d go back to the willow and I wouldn′t be shy I tell that boy that his kingdom was real That the girl on the porch knew exactly how to seal But the sanctity lived in the secret
I tell that boy that his kingdom was real That the girl on the porch knew exactly how to seal But the sanctity lived in the secret
