resurrection - veth’s song

a song for our rogue mom. find me on twitter: @lilli_furfaro you’ve all seen my hands and told me you’re sorry you’ve seen my smile and you screamed i’ve cut my teeth on buttons and secrets so i’ll cover my mouth and drink ‘til i forget to breathe you know me now this body i’m in i wish i knew how to shed this poison skin i am a thief, i am a liar i found a friend after the fire now i can hide you’ll offer protection so i’ll stay until i find the way to my resurrection you’re covered in dirt, and i hate the water we both know it hurts to be seen now you know that i’ve drowned in this river and a sea of angry faces you’ve shown me your shame now i need you to help me wash mine clean 'cause you know me now you didn’t know me then you say you love me now but you don’t remember when i was a wife, i was a mother i was alive now i’m a monster i’d do it again for my son and lover and i’ll find my way to them on the day of my resurrection you all know my name well, both that i’ve told you you tell me i’m brave, when before i was not(t) it’s been a long time since i’ve had a family and now i have two to take care of to remind me when i have forgot that you know me now and still you call me a friend you made me a vow and you’ll keep it ‘til my end then in the clay we find an answer i was a drunk, i was a monster now again i’m a wife again i’m a mother and i feel myself again (i will feel myself again) (I will find myself again)
